Maybe I'm a freak then. I don't really see a lot of other penises to get a good mental comparison. It just seemed like 200 mm (~8") was avg.

Yes, that's true but that's not the point that I'm making. The question's "why liters?" The answer's "convenient example of kg."

The liter (as well as the non-engineering units making up the prefix cluster around unity) were introduced later.

All of the units were designed to work together that way. Over time things shifted slightly but not enough to matter in an everyday way.

No, I meant kg. 1 liter of water has a mass of 1 kg. It might be slightly inexact now but not when liters were introduced.

Cover them with stickers while you're making new ones. Replace the signs as they wear out. There, I saved you billions.

It doesn't even knock down barriers to adopting metric units for building things like homes, which is basically the least it could do.

The metric conversion act was a toothless piece of show legislation. It does nothing and means nothing.

The base unit is the kg. It's the only base unit with a prefix. I explain why in another post on this thread.

Only NASA has been to the moon not the country. And they wouldn't have done it without literal metric Nazis.

Can you think of any other uses of that prefix?

grams were more appropriate for everyday things like coins. I think we should go back to grave.

We've been saddled with a prefixed base unit ever since. Also "grave" sounded like a German title of nobility "graf" and …

The other was called the "gravet" and was equal to the modern g. When the time to choose came the small one became gram and the big one kg.

During the creation of the mass standard they created a few placeholders. One was equal to the modern kg and was called the "grave".

What's this?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Liters are not base units they're just accepted as useful in SI. But the liter is useful because it's a tangible example of another base: kg

In practice? No. In theory, just as the root of a liter.

It's amphoteric so you can use it however.

Nicely laid out. I can't help but feel that people would probably like some illustration inside as well.
