 What units do scientists use for their measurements? SI Units of Measurement Base Units and Derived Units  SI is built upon 7 metric units, known as base units.

 Seven metric base units make up the foundation of SI. SI Units of Measurement

Temperature Scales: Celsius Scale Fahrenheit Scale Celsius Scale Fahrenheit Scale Measuring Temperature

The SI base unit for temperature is the kelvin (K). A temperature of 0 K, or 0 kelvin, refers to the lowest possible temperature that can be reached. A temperature of 0 K, or 0 kelvin, refers to the lowest possible temperature that can be reached. Measuring Temperature

Specific combinations of SI base units yield derived units. SI Units of Measurement

Metric Prefixes The metric unit is not always a convenient one to use. A metric prefix indicates how many times a unit should be multiplied or divided by 10.

BASE Giga MegaKiloHectoDecadecicentimillimicronano GMkhdadcmµn Metric System Prefix Chart

For example, the time it takes for a computer hard drive to read or write data is in the range of thousandths of a second, such as second. Using the prefix milli- (m), you can write second as 9 milliseconds, or 9 ms. SI Units of Measurement

Metric prefixes can also make a unit larger. For example, a distance of 12,000 meters can also be written as 12 kilometers. Metric prefixes turn up in nonmetric units as well. If you work with computers, you probably know that a gigabyte of data refers to 1,000,000,000 bytes. A megapixel is 1,000,000 pixels. SI Units of Measurement
