    The millimetre (SI symbol: mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −3 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 ⁠ m = 0.001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). 1.0 mm – 1/1,000 of a meter; 1.0 mm – 0.03937 inches or 5/127 (exactly)

    The debye (D) is a unit of electric dipole moment equal to 10 −18 statC⋅cm, corresponding to ~ 3.335 64 qC⋅m. The buckingham (B) is a unit of electric quadrupole moment equal to 10 −26 statC⋅cm 2 .

  5. Unit of length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_length

    The base unit in the International System of Units (SI) is the meter, defined as "the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1 ⁄ 299792458 seconds." [4] It is approximately equal to 1.0936 yd.

  6. Metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre

    The metre (or meter in US spelling; symbol: m) is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). Since 2019, the metre has been defined as the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of ⁠ 1 / 299 792 458 ⁠ of a second, where the second is defined by a hyperfine transition frequency of caesium.

    Here, the base units are the quad, equal to 10 7 m (approximately a quadrant of the Earth's circumference), the eleventhgram, equal to 10 −11 g, and the second. These were chosen so that the corresponding electrical units of potential difference, current and resistance had a convenient magnitude. [36]: 268 [37]: 17

  8. Metric prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix

    For example, 5 km is treated as 5000 m, which allows all quantities based on the same unit to be factored together even if they have different prefixes. A prefix symbol attached to a unit symbol is included when the unit is raised to a power. For example, 1 km 2 denotes 1 km × 1 km = 10 6 m 2, not 10 3 m 2.

    Different lengths as in respect to the electromagnetic spectrum, measured by the metre and its derived scales.The microwave is between 1 meter to 1 millimeter.. The millimetre (international spelling; SI unit symbol mm) or millimeter (American spelling) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one thousandth of a metre, which is the SI base unit of length.
