OFFICIAL QUESTION:
2. Why does it matter in forensic science?
3. Give me some broad highlights about it.
Our Geek of the Week answered:
This is the symbol for The International Bureau of Weights and Measures or BIPM (from it’s French name). It helps to ensure uniformity of International System of Unit weights and measures around the world. It does so through a series of consultative committees, whose members are the national metrology laboratories of the Convention’s member states, and through its own laboratory work.
The BIPM carries out measurement-related research. It takes part in and organizes international comparisons of national measurement standards and performs calibrations for member states.
The BIPM has an important role in maintaining accurate worldwide time of day. It combines, analyzes, and averages the official atomic time standards of member nations around the world to create a single, official Coördinated Universal Time (UTC).
[BLOGGER’S NOTE: Great answer. Thanks for playing.]
