To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 10 −3 and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). 1.0 mm — 1 / 1000 of a metre; 1.0 mm — 0.039 37 inches or 5 ⁄ 127 (exactly) 1.0 mm — side of square of area 1 mm 2; 1.0 mm — diameter of a pinhead; 1.5 mm — length of average flea
The microwave is in-between 1 meter to 1 millimeter. A centimetre or centimeter (US/Philippine spelling), with SI symbol cm, is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one hundredth of a metre, centi being the SI prefix for a factor of 1 / 100 . [1] Equivalently, there are 100 centimetres in 1 metre.
Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity.

In the twentieth century in the Republic of China, the lengths were standardized to fit with the metric system, and in current usage in People's Republic of China and Taiwan [citation needed] it measures 3 + 1 / 3 cm (~1.312 in). In Japan, the corresponding unit, sun (寸), was standardized at 1000 ⁄ 33 mm (3. 03 cm, ~1.193 in, or ~0. ...
