How to use "Meter" in context?
As a medium of measurement, the meter is one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous amenities of everyday life. It is the base unit of length in the metric system, and is ubiquitous in everyday contexts, including scientific and engineering work. Measuring objects, distances, and time is a common task, and meter sticks, rulers, and clocks are ubiquitous tools.
The meter is based on the length of a pendulum that swings once in a second. The length of this pendulum is defined as one meter. Thus, the meter is a very small unit of length and is very easy to work with.
