View Full Version : S.A.E or Metric Curly Howard 12-05-2004, 08:58 PM fer it or agin it? Deacon Frost 12-05-2004, 09:11 PM Metric. If it's good enough for the rest of the known world, it's good enough for America. Fallout 12-05-2004, 10:41 PM How many yards is 345 feet? How many meters is 345 centimeters? I don't even have to think about the second one. Its easier to learn, its faster, and its what EVERYONE ELSE is using. Of course America isn't going to use it. Squezze 12-05-2004, 11:10 PM Bas ackwards Americans realkaps 12-06-2004, 12:15 AM How many yards is 345 feet? How many meters is 345 centimeters? 115, how is it easyer too learn? How big is a Centimeter? Fallout 12-06-2004, 12:24 AM there are 100 centimeters in a meter. So its all done in multiples of 10. 345 centimeters is 3.45 meters. Samething with celcius. Its meant to be direct, and simple. Its all based around water. The point which water freezes is 0, the point at which is boils is 100. To convert Celsius into Fahrenheit Multiply by 9, divide by 5 and add 32. To convert Fahrenheit into Celsius Subtract 32, multiply by 5 and divide by 9 -40 degrees Celcius is the same as -40 degrees Fahrenheit strangely enough. There is also a third system of messurement known as Kelvin. However, its used to messure things in space so who gives a ****? Squezze 12-06-2004, 11:16 AM The dreaded Kelvins. I have to learn that **** for an exam tomorrow. Fallout 12-06-2004, 12:05 PM Kelvin is really ****ed when you try to use it to measure smaller items, like water and ****. I guess it works for NASA though. GeNeRaL 12-06-2004, 12:16 PM I agree. metric is where it's at. i dunno what americas problem is. nance 12-06-2004, 01:08 PM I agree. metric is where it's at. i dunno what americas problem is. We are independent and stubborn. Anything wrong with that? ;-) handjobs4dollars 12-06-2004, 08:00 PM we used kelvins when doing metal urge. Fallout 12-06-2004, 09:08 PM we used kelvins when doing metal urge. Yeah, but thats something you can't really use C or F for. |
