SI+units

As studied in class, all graduating students of Kuper Academy Physics are familiar with the SI (International System of Units), We know that:

Length corresponds to meters Mass corresponds to kilograms Time corresponds to seconds Current intensity corresponds to amperes Temperature corresponds to Kelvin Amount of a substance corresponds to moles

(if we want said quantitative result in SI units, of course)

Interestingly, though none of the above-mentioned are derived units, they weren't simply decided upon. The length of a meter wasn't simply "decided upon" one day as the length between someone's outstretched arms. In fact, these units are associated with a definition, as seen below.

  The triple point of a substance corresponds to the temperature and pressure at which the material can coexist in all three phases (solid, liquid and gas) in equilibrium. The triple point of water is 273.16 K at 611.2 Pa ||
 * Unit of Length || Meter || The meter is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second. ||  ||
 * Unit of Mass || Kilogram || The kilogram is equivalent to the international prototype of the kilogram (equivalent to one cubic dm of water or a block ||
 * of platinum iridium bearing the same mass). ||
 * Unit of Time || Second || The second is the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the cesium 133 atom. ||  ||
 * Unit of Electric Current || Ampere || The ampere is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross-section, and placed 1 meter apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 x 10-7 newton per meter of length. ||
 * Unit of Temperature || Kelvin || The kelvin, unit of thermodynamic temperature, is the fraction 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water.

COOLER, SIIIIICKER (*Eyal arms and legs) INFORMATION ABOUT THE SI UNITS

It is important to know that the SI system of units came about as a way in which to standardize measurements for scientists all around the globe. Some time ago, back in the good old year or 1998, NASA lost a 327.6 million-dollar orbiter, when it crashed into the planet of Mars. One main reason cited for the crash was a metric system mishap.Apparently, the navigation software required data in Newton seconds (a unit in the Metric system), yet the company that built the software provided it in pound-force seconds (Standard units in the US imperial system).

It was basically events like these that led country to adopt a common 7-base unit system called the Systeme Internationale D'Unite (SI).This modern version of the metric system originated in France in 1790 and soon became the fundamental basis of scientific measurement world-wide.
