Kilometer (km) and Meter (m): A Brief Overview
The meter (m) and kilometer (km) are units of length in the International System of Units (SI).
Meter (m):
Definition: The meter is the base unit of length in the SI system. One meter is currently defined as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Usage: The meter is used globally in various applications, including measuring height, width, depth, and distance. It's commonly used in everyday measurements, science, engineering, and other fields.
Subdivisions: The meter can be divided into smaller units such as centimeters (cm) and millimeters (mm).
1 meter = 100 centimeters
1 meter = 1,000 millimeters
Kilometer (km):
Definition: The kilometer is a derived unit of length in the SI system. It is equivalent to 1,000 meters.
Usage: Kilometers are often used to measure longer distances, such as the distance between cities, lengths of roads, and geographical distances.
Conversions:
1 kilometer = 1,000 meters
1 kilometer = 100,000 centimeters
1 kilometer = 1,000,000 millimeters
