1 E-3 m

To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 10^-3 m and 10^-2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). See also lengths of other orders of magnitude.

• Shorter distances
• 1.0 mm is equal to:
  • 0.1 centimetres
  • 1/1000 of a metre (a tall adult male human would be about two metres)
  • 0.039 inch.
  • side of square of area 1 mm².
  • edge of cube of volume 1 mm³.
• 2.54 mm -- distance between pins on old DIP (dual-in-pair) electronic components
• 5 mm -- length of average red ant
• 7.62 mm -- common military ammunition size
