  2. International System of Units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units

    [1]: 137 For example, the metre, kilometre, centimetre, nanometre, etc. are all SI units of length, though only the metre is a coherent SI unit. The complete set of SI units consists of both the coherent set and the multiples and sub-multiples of coherent units formed by using the SI prefixes. [1]: 138 The kilogram is the only coherent SI unit ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    mass "The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m 2 s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆ν Cs." [1] The mass of one litre of water at the ...

  5. System of units of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_units_of_measurement

    The current international standard for the metric system is the International System of Units (Système international d'unités or SI). It is a system in which all units can be expressed in terms of seven units. The units that serve as the SI base units are the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela.

  6. Unit of length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_length

    A unit of length refers to any arbitrarily chosen and accepted reference standard for measurement of length. The most common units in modern use are the metric units, used in every country globally. In the United States the U.S. customary units are also in use. British Imperial units are still used for some purposes in the United Kingdom and ...

  7. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    A number of different units (some only of historical interest) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit. Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article.

  9. International System of Quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of...

    [a] This system underlies the International System of Units (SI) [b] but does not itself determine the units of measurement used for the quantities. The system is formally described in a multi-part ISO standard ISO/IEC 80000 (which also defines many other quantities used in science and technology), first completed in 2009 and subsequently ...
