Sorry of course its cm and kg
I think it autocorrected and/or I didn’t proof read it. Howard From: USMA <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Philip Bladon Sent: Friday, September 11, 2020 2:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [USMA 1549] Re: USMA Digest, Vol 58, Issue 15 ATTENTION: This email came from an external source. Do not open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails. Hi, Just to point out that the correct unit symbols are: 'cm' and 'kg'. Both letters are lower case, no capital letters. The following are examples of inkorrect symbols: 'Kg', 'Km', 'KJ', and 'KW'. The prefix: kilo should be lowercase 'k'. The correct symbols for the units kilojoule and kilowatt are 'kJ' and 'kW'. The word 'inkorrect' does exist.
