Definitions of the SI / Metric Base Units
Unit of length
meter
The meter is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval
of 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Unit of mass
kilogram
The kilogram is the unit of mass; it is equal to the mass of the international
prototype of the kilogram.
Unit of time
second
The second is the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding
to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the cesium
133 atom.
Unit of electric current

ampere
The ampere is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel
conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross-section, and placed
1 meter apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal
to 2 x 10-7 newton per meter of length.
Unit of thermodynamic temperature

kelvin
The kelvin, unit of thermodynamic temperature, is the fraction 1/273.16 of the
thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water.
Unit of amount of substance

mole
1. The mole is the amount of substance of a system which contains as many
elementary entities as there are atoms in 0.012 kilogram of carbon 12; its
symbol is mol.
2. When the mole is used, the elementary entities must be specified and may be
atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, other particles, or specified groups of such
particles.
Unit of luminous intensity

candela
The candela is the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits
monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 1012 hertz and that has a radiant
intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian.
