    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The megametre (SI symbol: Mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1 000 000 meters (10 6 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths starting at 10 6 m (1 Mm or 1,000 km).

    The French lieue — at different times — existed in several variants, namely 10,000, 12,000, 13,200 and 14,400 French feet, about 3.25 to 4.68 km (2.02 to 2.91 miles). It was used along with the metric system for a while, but is long discontinued. A metric lieue was used in France from 1812 to 1840, with 1 metric lieue being exactly 4,000 m ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

    A metric ounce is an approximation of the imperial ounce, US dry ounce, or US fluid ounce. These three customary units vary. However, the metric ounce is usually taken as 25 or 30 ml (0.88 or 1.06 imp fl oz; 0.85 or 1.01 US fl oz) when volume is being measured, or in grams when mass is being measured.

  7. Orders of magnitude (speed) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(speed)

    Typical speed of a modern high-speed train (e.g. latest generation of production TGV); a diving peregrine falcon—fastest bird; 320 km/h or 200 mph is a parameter sometimes used in defining a supercar.

  8. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    Although there are 10 mm in 1 cm, there are 100 mm 2 in 1 cm 2. Calculation of the area of a square whose length and width are 1 metre would be: 1 metre × 1 metre = 1 m 2. and so, a rectangle with different sides (say length of 3 metres and width of 2 metres) would have an area in square units that can be calculated as: 3 metres × 2 metres ...
