Record Type: concept
kilograms (<size/dimension units for weight>, <size/dimensions by unit>, ... Attributes and Properties (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Metric units of mass equal to about 2.205 pounds. One kilogram is approximately equal to the weight of 1000 cubic centimeters of water. The kilogram is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI) (the Metric system); defined as being equal to the mass of the International Prototype of the Kilogram. It is the only SI unit that is still directly defined by an artifact rather than a fundamental physical property that can be reproduced in different laboratories.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Massa- of gewichtsmaat in het metrieke stelsel, gelijk aan ongeveer 2,205 Britse of Amerikaanse pond en ruwweg het gewicht van 1000 kubieke centimeter water. De kilogram is de standaardeenheid voor massa in het Internationale Stelsel van Eenheden (SI) en wordt officieel gedefinieerd als de massa van het internationale prototype voor de kilogram. Daarmee is de kilogram de enige SI-eenheid die nog steeds direct wordt gedefinieerd aan de hand van een artefact, in plaats van een fundamentele fysieke eigenschap die in verschillende laboratoria gereproduceerd kan worden.
