Centimeter

The centimeter is a unit of length in the International System of Units, abbreviated as SI. Lengths or heights of small to medium-sized objects and smaller distances are measured in centimeters. The standard abbreviation of centimeter is cm. In the SI unit system, the centimeter is the smaller unit of meter, the base unit of length. It was the base unit in the CGS (Centimeter-Gram-Second) system, which is no longer used in practice. Centimeter is used in all the countries that have adopted the metric system (now SI) as their default measurement system.

The centimeter is widely used in everyday measurements. These include height measurements, furniture dimensions, clothing sizes, electronic gadgets, paper sizes, jewelry, book dimensions, photographs, and many more applications.

Kilometer

Inch is often used to measure the height of a person. Apart from height measurement, the inch also has other common uses such as measuring electronic components, furniture dimensions, shoe sizes, packaging boxes, etc.

The metric system was implemented in France in 1799, and the meter was made the base unit of length. However, meter was not suitable for all purposes of length measurement, for example, to measure long distances. A unit called the myriameter was popular to represent 10000 meters until 1867. The Netherlands made the term kilometer official to represent 1000 meters in 1867. In 1935, the CIPM (International Committee for Weights and Measures) abolished the prefix “myria”, which gave broader recognition to the kilometer as the unit of length for measurements of similar extent as myriameter.

The most common use of the kilometer is to measure distances between geographical places, lengths of the racing tracks, etc. It is used in combination with other units to calculate the fuel efficiency (kilometers per liter), speed (kilometers per hour), etc.
