Micrometer

A micrometer (µm), also called a micron, is an extremely small unit of length in the metric system. It is equal to one-millionth of a meter (0.000001 meters). Micrometers are used to measure tiny objects that are invisible to the naked eye, such as bacteria, cells, or the thickness of a human hair (which is about 50 to 70 micrometers thick). The symbol for micrometer is "µm". This unit is very important in science, engineering, and manufacturing where precise measurements are needed at microscopic scales. Because it is so small, the micrometer helps scientists study the details of very small structures.

Nautical Mile (UK)

The nautical mile (UK) is a unit of distance used primarily in maritime and aviation navigation in the United Kingdom. Traditionally, it was defined as 6,080 feet (about 1,853 meters), which is slightly longer than the modern international nautical mile of 1,852 meters. This UK definition was used before international standardization in 1929. Today, the international nautical mile is widely adopted, but the UK nautical mile historically played an important role in navigation and mapping.
