That is the kilometer.
A millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter.
A kilometer is one thousand TIMES a meter (1 meter X 103) and a megameter is one million TIMES a meter (1 meter X 106), while a millimeter is one thousANDTH of a meter (1 meter X 10-3) and a micrometer is one millionTH of a meter (1 meter X 10-6).The prefix (e.g. kilo) attached to the unit (e.g. meter) defines the multiplier, as in kilo means "1000 times" andmega means "million times," while milli means "1/1000 of" and micromeans " one millionth of." So, for example,kilometer can broken down into kilo and meter, suggesting 1000 times a meter, which is equal to 1000 meters.The prefix either breaks a unit (in this case meters) into parts of the unit or multiplies of the unit, depending on the SIGN (+ or -) of the exponent attached to the prefix (negative exponents refer to fractions of the unit [smaller] while positive exponents refer to multiples of the unit [bigger]).
1000 L = 1 kilolitre
There is not a single metric unit of length. 1000 metres is 1000 unit of the MKS (metre-kilogram-second) basis of length or 100,000 of the CGS (centimetre-gram-second) basis.
Kilo- is the unit of the metric system that represents 1000 times the base unit.
Well, in the metric system, the base unit for distance is the meter. If that is the unit to which you refer, then there are 1000 milimeters in one "unit", or meter.
The SI unit for length is the meter, but for longer distances the kilometer is used. There are 1000 meters in a kilometer.
1 kilometer=1000 meters 1 meter = 100 centimeters i centimeter = 10 milimeters
meter meter
No, It's the metric unit for length
The standard unit of length in the metric system is the meter: 1 millimeter = 0.001 meter 1 centimeter = 0.01 meter 1 decimeter = 0.1 meter 1 kilometer = 1000 meters
The basic metric unit of length is the meter (m).
No. The closest metric unit is the meter.
The basic metric unit for length is the meter (m).
the meter is defined as the basic unit of the metric unit.
The meter is the metric base unit for volume, and the cubic meter is the derived unit.
