You would want to use meters, which is the base for measuring distance. A Meter is roughly 3 feet long. Three other metric distance measurements to be aware of are kilometers, which are 1000 meters, centimeters, which are 1/100 of a meter, and millimeters, which are 1/1000 of a meter.

What mectric unit would be used to measure a the length of a table?

The International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) started in 1926 and the Laws of Table Tennis included all measurements in imperial units only (feet and inches). In 1937, the metric (metres, centimetres &amp; millimetres) equivalent were added alongside the imperial measurements. In 1947, the metric measurements were made the primary units of measurement with imperial measurements secondary. In 1975 the imperial measurements were omitted from the Laws completely and all measurements were stated in metric units only. So table tennis tables are defined in the Laws of Table Tennis using metric measurements only. An official table tennis table is 2.74m long, 1.525m wide and 76cm high, and the net is 1.83m long and 15.25cm high


To stop a table in your classroom falling through the floor what must the floor do against the force of gravity pulling the table down?

Newton's third law of motion states that: "For applied force (A), exists some force (B) of equal magnitude acting in the opposite direction of the force applied.". The force of the weight (which is the mass of the table multiplied by gravity) [W=mg] pushing down on the floor is counterbalanced by an equal and opposite force of the floor pushing up on the table. This is why the table does not fall through the floor. The floor is able to provide this force without allowing the table to move through it because the bonds between its atoms are strong enough.


What is something you measure in meters?

Simple answer: Distance can be stated in meters. A unit of measure to indicate length. Area or volume can be expressed in terms of square meters or cubic meters. In all countries except for two, the US and UK, the metric system is used to measure distances. The units used for travel are kilometers, for objects less than a kilometer it is common to use meters, for objects smaller then a meter centimeters and millimeters are used. For really tiny things, like bacteria, metric units called microns are used. These are one-millionth of a meter long. In the US and UK only scientists use the metric system. Most people use the Imperial system. The distance units (leagues, miles, furlongs, chains, yards, feet, inches) in the Imperial system are defined in metric units. So an inch is 25.4000000000 millimeters &mdash; exactly. A foot is 12 times that, a yard 36 times, a chain 792 times and so on.

How would you measure the height of a basketball hoop?

Lay a level or other straightedge across the table rails diagonally at a corner. Use a rule to measure from the bottom of the level to the floor. Then measure from the bottom of the level to the playing surface, and subtract this number from the first measurement. This gives you the distance from the playing surface to the bottom of the table leg. This distance is required to be between 29 and 1/4 inches and 30 and 1/4 inches for a regulation table.
