Millimeter


A millimeter (mm) is a very small unit of length in the metric system. It is commonly used to measure tiny objects or precise dimensions. One millimeter is equal to one-thousandth of a meter (1 mm = 0.001 m), and 10 millimeters make 1 centimeter. Millimeters are often used in fields like engineering, machining, and science where exact measurements are important. For example, the thickness of a credit card is about 1 mm. The symbol for millimeter is "mm", and you can find it on most rulers or measuring tools. Since it allows for high accuracy, the millimeter is ideal for measuring small parts, gaps, or details.


Astronomical Unit (a.u.) of Length


The astronomical unit (a.u.) is a unit of length used primarily in astronomy to describe distances within our solar system. It is defined as the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.


Key facts:



  • 1 astronomical unit ≈ 149,597,870.7 kilometers (about 93 million miles)



  • Used to measure distances between planets and other objects in the solar system



  • Provides a convenient scale for expressing space distances that are too large for kilometers but too small for light-years



The astronomical unit helps astronomers communicate and calculate orbits, planetary positions, and space missions with clarity and precision.
