what is the smaller scale than mm?

Question

there is m then cm then mm but what comes next?

Answer 1

Factor Name Symbol
10−1 decimetre dm
10−2 centimetre cm
10−3 millimetre mm
10−6 micrometre µm
10−9 nanometre nm
10−12 picometre pm
10−15 femtometre (fermi) fm
10−18 attometre am
10−21 zeptometre zm
10−24 yoctometre ym

Answer 2

Smaller Than Mm

Answer 3

1 meter = 10 decimeters (dm)
1 decimeter = 10 cm
1 cm = 10 mm

there is no name for the tenth part of a mm

1 mm = 1000 micrometers (µm)
1 µm = 1000 nanometers (nm)
1 nm = 1000 picometers (pm)
1 pm = 1000 femtometers (fm)

Answer 4

1 micrometer = 10^ -6 meter

1 nanometer = 10^ -9 meter

1 picometer = 10^ -12 meter

Answer 5

micro metre = 10 to the power of minus 6

Answer 6

micrometers (which are meters x 10^-6) and nanometers (which are meters x 10^-9)..

mm are thousandths of a meter
micrometers are millionths of a meter
nanometers are billionths of a meter (thousand millionths)

Answer 7

there's micrometer, 10^-6 and then nanometer, 10^-9

Answer 8

Try the good ol' imperial measurments which go into thousands of an inch. Such character.

Answer 9

James is right if you are British-metres

The people across the pond meters,with which we measure

Answer 10

µm is the next one at 1/1,000,000 of a metre.
