Definisi
Sistem satuan metrik berbasis meter, kilogram, dan detik, yang merupakan pendahulu langsung sistem SI modern yang diadopsi pada tahun 1960.
Penjelasan
The MKS system was proposed by Giovanni Giorgi in 1901 to resolve inconsistencies in CGS electromagnetic units. It uses practical units: the newton for force (kg·m/s²), the joule for energy (kg·m²/s²), and the watt for power (kg·m²/s³). SI extended MKS by adding four more base units — the ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela — creating the complete seven-unit framework still used today.
