PHYS 2108 Chapter : Lab 2 Measurement Of Mass Length And Time
Document Summary
If we"re talking about a beer for ten dollars, it"s a little steep. The problem is compounded when we realize the amount of beer is also unknown. If we settle on , questions remain about this deal if it"s for a single draw, a can, a case or a keg.

After all, the point of a measurement is to tell us how much of something we have. Different systems of units exist around the world. English system of feet for distance and pounds for force. The metric system or mks (meter, kilogram, seconds) is another system used globally for science and is part of the international system (si) of units. Four fundamental units length, time, mass and charge are not the only physical quantities, but they are the most basic.
