The millimetre (SI symbol: mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −3 metres ( 1 / 1 000 m = 0.001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm).
Bushmeat extraction in the Amazon rainforest was estimated to be much lower, at 3.69 ± 3.9 kg/km 2 (21.1 ± 22.3 lb/sq mi) in the case of species weighing more than 10 kg and 0.6 ± 0.9 kg/km 2 (3.4 ± 5.1 lb/sq mi) in the case of species weighing less than 10 kg, based on 3 individuals.
Millimeter waves show "optical" propagation characteristics and can be reflected and focused by small metal surfaces and dielectric lenses around 5 to 30 cm (2 inches to 1 foot) diameter. Because their wavelengths are often much smaller than the equipment that manipulates them, the techniques of geometric optics can be used.
Super high frequency (SHF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] for radio frequencies (RF) in the range between 3 and 30 gigahertz (GHz). This band of frequencies is also known as the centimetre band or centimetre wave as the wavelengths range from one to ten centimetres.
The SI unit of molar absorption coefficient is the square metre per mole (m 2 /mol), but in practice, quantities are usually expressed in terms of M −1 ⋅cm −1 or L⋅mol −1 ⋅cm −1 (the latter two units are both equal to 0.1 m 2 /mol). In older literature, the cm 2 /mol is sometimes used; 1 M −1 ⋅cm −1 equals 1000 cm 2 /mol.
The longest distance achieved on 2 mm in the United Kingdom was 35.6 kilometres (22.1 mi) between stations G8ACE and G8KQW on January 16 2016. [ 5 ] In Australia , the 2 mm distance record was 19 kilometres (12 mi) set by stations VK3CV and VK3NH on June 11, 2020.
Fine julienne; measures approximately 1 ⁄ 16 by 1 ⁄ 16 by 1–2 inches (0.2 cm × 0.2 cm × 3 cm–5 cm), and is the starting point for the fine brunoise cut. [ 1 ] Chiffonade ; rolling leafy greens and slicing the roll in sections from 4–10mm in width
In radio-frequency engineering and communications engineering, a waveguide is a hollow metal pipe used to carry radio waves. [1] This type of waveguide is used as a transmission line mostly at microwave frequencies, for such purposes as connecting microwave transmitters and receivers to their antennas, in equipment such as microwave ovens, radar sets, satellite communications, and microwave ...
