But the four SI units that have undergone definition change were previously based on something - i.e.

India adopts new measurement unit for Kilogram, Kelvin, mole, ampere

This all rather supports my long-held contention that we would get along much better sticking to pounds and ounces and feet and inches rather than SI units, especially when incorrectly converted.

Conversion confusion

All 4 SRMPs have documented good results in the IFCC and NGSP monitoring programs [CV <3.0% in SI units, <2.0% in DCCT units, no bias or a very small bias ([+ or -] 1 mmol/mol) compared to the IFCC primary reference measurement procedure (PRMP)] and were calibrated using the IFCC secondary reference material with assigned IFCC and derived DCCT values.

So, in SI units: current becomes force--[kgm/[sec.sup.2]] or [N], the potential becomes velocity--[m/sec], capacity becomes mass of the electrons accumulated on the plates of the capacitor

On the uniform dimension system. Is there the necessity for Coulomb?

The use of metric and SI units is an integral part of the mathematics and science curricula.

SI cube helps students learn SI units and volume

However, by showing how the definitions of the seven base units of the current SI also fix the numerical values of a set of seven reference constants (broadly interpreted) when the values of these constants are expressed in their coherent SI units, and how the definition of the current SI can be recast into the same form as that of the revised SI under consideration, we show that the revision is not as radical a departure from the current SI as it might initially seem.

The current SI seen from the perspective of the proposed New SI

The arrangement is new, and SI units are used throughout.

The DIVA automatically compensates for changes in steam density, providing 4-20-mA and pulsed outputs proportional to mass or energy flow, as well as real time display of steam pressure, temperature, flow rate and total flow in both English and SI units. Meter configuration is quick and simple via the on-board display and code-protected keypad.
