: : Hmm... I did wonder about pounds, sometimes people say that their weight is something like 150 pounds, and me, being used to kilograms... well it's just scary... 
: : But I guess everyday you learn some new things
: mmm... inches, blahhh, use these:
: 2.5 cm = 1 inch, yep but.
: (mm) 10 millimeter = 1 centimeter
: (cm) 10 centimeter = 1 decimeter
: (dm) 10 decimeter = 1 meter
: (M) 10 Meter = 1 decameter
It's dekameter...
: (dam) 10 decameter = 1 hectometer
: (hm) 10 hectometer = 1 kilometer
: (km) 1000 kilometer = 1 megameter
Megameter isn't a valid measure I believe.
: we have smaller...
: 100 micrometer = 1 mm ( centimeter )
Nope, 1000 micrometer = 1 mm, and it's millimeter, not centimeter.
: 100 nanometer = 1 m ( It looks like a m, its a strange thing )
No, 1000 nanometer = 1 µm. ( micrometer ) and that strange thing doesn't look much like an m to me.. that is (µ != m)
: we've got smaller, but I dont know how we call them
And they are rarely used.. however, they are
1000 picometer = 1 nanometer
1000 femtometer = 1 picometer
1000 attometer = 1 femtometer
1000 zeptometer = 1 attometer
1000 yoctometer = 1 zeptometer
and if anyone would need smaller measures, they are mad.. a human hair is about 60000 nanometer in width. Just imagine then how wide 1 yoctometer is.
