No because there is no such as the Cambridge System of measurements.
'
I think you've seen and misunderstood publicity for or reports on, a major academic conference hosted in July 2015 by Cambridge University, on the history, philosophy and science of measurement at a time of studies into the fundamental definitions of the basic metric units.
'
Nobody was trying to invent a new system. They were looking at unit-definitions that would suit the most rigid scientific demands, such as in quantum physics and astronomy, where relating measurements to a standard metal bar is just not precise enough. It's worth noting that the University of Cambridge is particularly noted for its mathematics research and teaching.

∙ 14y agoI never heard about a Cambridge system of units. In any case, the best would be to use the international standard, and that is the metric system. If everybody uses a different system of units, because he thinks it is better than others, that makes communication between different people ... difficult.

How did they derive the formula from English system to metric system?
because it is better to use metric converter than english converter
How is metric measurement different than customary measurement?
They are both systems of measurement except that the metric system is simpler and used by the majority of the world.
What is the difference between a linear meter and a metric meter?
A linear meter is a meter, in a straight line, as opposed to cubic meter, which covers a 2-dimensional plane. They are both part of the metric system. There is no metric meter, other than just referring to a meter as being part of the metric system.
Why is metrics easier to use than your system?
Because scientist all over the world uses the metric system. Say if a American scientist send his data to I don't know. Let's say Japan then they could understand it better then other systems of measurements. Because most of the sciencetist use the metric system. But this is just a reason for science. I'm sure theirs even more simpler reasons out there.
Why do people consider the metric system easier to use than US system?
The metric system uses conversion factors of 10 for all units. Instead of remembering all the different conversions between each unit (4quarts=1gallon, 5280feet=1mile, ect), you only have to memorize a couple of prefixes. The (common) metric prefixes are Milli=1000th Centi=100th Deci=10th Deka=x10 Hecto=x100 Kilo=x1000

Why is metric better than customary?
It isn't better. The customary might seem better because most Americans know the parts of the customary system they need to know and therefore it seems easy to use. 99 per cent of the world's population can't be wrong in using the modern metric system as an everyday measurement system.
Who is better Newcastle or Cambridge football club?
well cambridge 1st are better than newcastle reserves but newcastles 1st team is better than cambridges 1st team
Why is the metric system better than the US conventional system?
because it goes by 10s and is alot easier. and the rest of the world uses it.
Is histon fc better than Cambridge utd fc?
Portsmouth are worse than both of them!!!!
How if a housewife with a recipe that uses the units of pound and ounce to measure weight of ingredients and needs to buy them in a shop that sells goods measured in metric system?
She needs to use the metric system. Unless she happens to be less intelligent than the majority of people across the world who are competently using metric measures.

Why is the metric system more reliable in accurately measuring things than the system of inches pounds and ounces?
The metric system is much more reliable than the system for inches and feet and yards because the metric system is used around the world. It's also based on tens, which makes it much easier to use.
How do you think metric?
It is much simpler than the Imperial system.
What system of measurements do scientists use?
Scientists use the metric or SI units of measurement.
Is a gram measurement of a weight in the metric system?
Yes, its the base unit for measuring mass.
How did countries overcome problems when using metric system?
There are no problems when using the metric system. The metric system is a lot simpler than any archaic country-specific system. If you are usinĝ a country-specific system, this is a lot more complicated, as you have to convert so your customers can understand your products.
What metric system is larger than a kilogram?
A tonne = 1,000 kilogrammes
