What is Meter (m)

A meter is the base unit for measuring distance and length under the International System of Units. This measuring unit is denoted by the abbreviation ‘m’ and is equal to the distance light travels in one second at a speed of 1/299 792 458. In 2019, the definition of meters was slightly modified to reflect some kind of modifications and alterations.

Current Use of Meter

Meter, often represented as ‘m’ is the SI unit of length. Currently, this unit of measurement is used globally in a wide variety of applications that involves measuring height, distance, length, width etc. It is important to note that the United States is the only country that does not use Meter as a measuring unit in their everyday life. Instead, the country uses United States Customary units like yards, miles, feet and inches.

History of Meter

The meter in 1793 was defined as one ten-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator. But the definition was adjusted in 1889 when the worldwide prototype meter was set as the standard unit of length measurement. The value of the meter was revised again in 1960 in terms of the specific wavelength of a Krypton-86 emission line. Later in 1983, the final revision of the meter was done and the definition was slightly modified and established as the current definition of the meter.

What is Feet (ft) in Canada

The foot (symbolised as ‘ft’) is a unit of length used in the US and British Imperial customary systems of measurement. Feet is the plural of the word ‘foot’ used to measure distance or length in the US. In the past, the exact measurement of a foot varied from one area to another and even from one trade to another. But following the International Yard and Pound Agreement of 1959, one foot was standardised to be equal to 0.3048 meters. 

Current Use of Feet

The foot is a unit of measurement used on a daily basis in the United Kingdom and Canada. In the United States, the foot and inch are predominantly used to measure height and short distances, such as field length or altitude of a mountain. Feet as a unit of measurement have been used in various systems, such as Greek, Chinese, English, French, and Roman, each with a different foot length.

History of Feet

In the past, a foot as a unit of measurement was based on the size of an adult man’s foot, which varied from person to person, resulting in inconsistencies in measurement. This caused difficulties when it came to trade and other activities, so the need for a fixed standard length of the foot was established. In 1959, this need was fulfilled by introducing the International System and Pound Agreement, which defined a foot as 0.30 meters.
