  2. Reciprocal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocal_length

    Spatial frequency is a reciprocal length, which can thus be used as a measure of energy, usually of a particle. For example, the reciprocal centimetre, cm1, is an energy unit equal to the energy of a photon with a wavelength of 1 cm. That energy amounts to approximately 1.24 × 10 −4 eV or 1.986 × 10 −23 J.

    The centimetre (SI symbol: cm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −2 metres (⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ m = 0.01 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm).

    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.

[3] The barye (Ba) is a unit of pressure equal to 1 dyn⋅cm −2 (100 mPa). The erg (erg) is a unit of energy equal to 1 dyn⋅cm (100 nJ). [3]

  6. Metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre

    The metre (or meter in US spelling; symbol: m) is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). Since 2019, the metre has been defined as the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of ⁠ 1 / 299 792 458 ⁠ of a second, where the second is defined by a hyperfine transition frequency of caesium.
