Interpretation : The reason for the user-friendly nature of the metric system is to be evaluated.
Concept Introduction : The metric system is the measurement system that is employed in science.
Answer to Problem 23LC
The basis for all metric units is multiples of 10 and it can be easily changed between different units.
Explanation of Solution
All measures are dependent on units that act as reference standards. A metric system is one in which the kilogram serves as the unit of weight and the meter serves as the unit of length. In France, the metric system was first introduced in 1785.
The metric system is the measurement system that is employed in science. Because it is so simple and user-friendly, the metric system is significant.
The basis for all metric units is multiples of 10 and it can be easily changed between different units.
