Kilogram
In 1901, Giovanni Giorgi proposed a new system of units that would remedy this state of affairs.
which unit is used to measure mass in the metric system kilogram what does this system refers to? It is a system of measurement that succeeded the decimalised system. when was this concept launched? 1790 can you mention one of its principles? Designed for transnational use, it consisted of a basic set of units of measurement, now known as base units. can you name any two of such base units? "metre" for length, "kilogram" for mass, "second" for time, etc. what is meant by the common version of this system? A number of different metric system have been developed, all using the "Mètre des Archives" and "Kilogramme des Archives" (or their descendants) as their base units, but differing in the definitions of the various derived units. from where does the mass base unit derived its name? UNANSWERABLE which proposal is related to this unit? The Giorgi proposal what is this proposal? He proposed that any practical electrical unit could be chosen as the new fundamental unit, independent from the meter, kilogram, and second.

Kilogram [SEP] The Giorgi proposal
In 1901, Giovanni Giorgi proposed a new system of units that would remedy this state of affairs. He noted that the mechanical practical units such as the joule and the watt are coherent not only in the QES system, but also in the meter-kilogram-second (MKS) system. It was of course known that just adopting the meter and the kilogram as base units—obtaining the three dimensional MKS system—would not solve the problem: while the watt and the joule would be coherent, this would not be so for the volt, the ampere, the ohm, and the rest of the practical units for electric and magnetic quantities (the only three-dimensional absolute system in which "all" practical units are coherent is the QES system).
