Extractions: Math A The Metric System of Measurement The Metric system of measurement was created about two hundred years ago by a group of French scientists to simplify measurement. In the metric system, each of the common kinds of measure length, weight, capacity has one basic unit of measure. To measure smaller amounts, divide the basic unit into parts of ten, a hundred, or a thousand, and so on. To measure larger amounts, multiply the basic unit by ten, a hundred, or a thousand, and so on. Length: kilo meter (km) = 1000 meters (m)

Extractions: 5. Agency Ombudsman ... Section 5164 of the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 (Public Law 100-418) directed Federal procurement, grant, and other business-related activities to be metric by September 1992, to the extent economically feasible. This mandate was reinforced by Executive Order 12770, Metric Usage in Federal Government Programs, signed on July 25, 1991. The Savings in Construction Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-289) specifically prohibits Federal construction contract documents issued after January 10, 1997, from solely specifying hard metric concrete masonry and recessed lighting fixtures unless analyses show that the total installed costs of these products are no higher than the installed costs of similar inch-pound products. This Act also required each agency that awards construction contracts to designate a senior agency official to serve as a construction metrication ombudsman. It is ARS policy to implement, to the extent economically feasible, the metric system in ARS procurement, research grants, and construction, in a manner and on schedule consistent with Section 5164 of Public Law 100-418, Public Law 104-289, Executive Order 12770 (July 1991), and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Regulation 1020-38 (May 1992).

Extractions: The Metric system was developed in France during the Nepolianic reign of France in the 1790's. The metric system has several advantages over the English system which is still in place in the U.S. However the scientific community has adopted the metric system almost from its inception. In fact, the metric system missed being nationalized in this country by one vote in the Continental Congress in the late 1700's or early 1800's. The advantages of the Metric system are: It was based on a decimal system (ie:powers of ten). Therefore, it simplifies calculations by using a set of prefixes which we will discuss in a few minutes. It is used by most other nations of the world, and therefore, it has commercial and trade advantage. If an American manufacturer that has domestic and international customers is to compete, they have to absorb the added cost of dealing with two systems of measurement. Let's now take a few minutes and speak of the useful set of "prefixes" used in the metric system sometimes referred to as the System Internationale (SI). One of the mathematical advantages of the metric system is its combination of metric terminology with its decimal organization. There are several prefixes that are associated with a decimal position and can be attached to the base metric unit in order to create a new metric unit. The knowledge of the decimal meaning of the prefix establishes the relationship between the newly created unit and the base unit.
