Question

What is a meter? Give two examples of objects that are a meter in length.

Answer 1

metre is a measurement of length the examples of object that are measured in metre and length are distance and height of a building

Answer 2

Until fairly recently there was only one thing that was exactly one meter long. It was the prototype meter, a rod of platinum that was by definition exactly one meter. The unit itself was originally based on the length of a pendulum that swings with a given frequency, so it wasn't chosen based on some every day object of the given length. Now that the definition of the unit has changed, there really isn't anything exactly 1 m long anymore.  

Things that are approximatelly one meter are, for example:

- a large step (average step is about 80 cm)

- the blade of a longsword

- the circumference of a car wheel (without a tire)

- the height of a kitchen counter

- the shoulder height of a black bear

- 4 pieces of paper, A4 format, two of them lengthwise and two of them crosswise

- I am clearly grasping for straws here, it's really difficult to come up with examples
