[USMA:26844] RE: Questions

Farms, development-size tracts, small lakes, etc. are measured in hectares. Larger areas are measured in square kilometers. The transition from one to the other is a matter of judgment.   For small volumes (car interiors, car trunks, refrigerators, freezers, etc.), liters are the unit of choice.   Bill Potts, CMS Roseville, CA http://metric1.org [SI Navigator]     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of john mercer Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 16:19 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:26843] Questions Hello could someone please tell me what the proper S I unit is to measure land area?  What is the way to measure volume of apliances such as deep freezers and fridges?  Is it cubic meters or liters?
