Tim,
There is no such thing as "metrics" when referring to SI
units. What you mean is metric, in the singular sense only. Metric
in the plural sense is something else all together. It has something to do
with the collection and manipulation of numerical data. Something we don't
deal with.
also, there is no such a thing as a metric hour. The
SI has its own time unit. It is the second. A true SI unit of speed
would be metres per second (m/s) however, the SI allows, for the time
being, the traditional time units to be used along with SI units. Thus it
is ok to express speeds in kilometres per hour (km/h).
Please explain to me why we need to have another time
unit, when what we have already as part of SI is suitable.
John
