  3. Order of magnitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_magnitude

    [contradictory] For example, the number 4 000 000 has a logarithm (in base 10) of 6.602; its order of magnitude is 6. When truncating, a number of this order of magnitude is between 10 6 and 10 7. In a similar example, with the phrase "seven-figure income", the order of magnitude is the number of figures minus one, so it is very easily ...

  4. Mega- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mega-

    Mega is a unit prefix in metric systems of units denoting a factor of one million (10 6 or 1 000 000). It has the unit symbol M. It was confirmed for use in the International System of Units (SI) in 1960. Mega comes from Ancient Greek: μέγας, romanized: mégas, lit. 'great'. [1]

  5. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

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

    The micrometre (SI symbol: μm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 106 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 ⁠ m = 0. 000 001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists some items with lengths between 106 and 105 m (between 1 and 10 micrometers, or μm). ~0.7–300 μm – wavelength of infrared radiation

  6. Million years ago - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Million_years_ago

    The "ago" is implied, so that any such year number "X Ma" between 66 and 145 is "Cretaceous", for good reason. But the counter argument is that having myr for a duration and Mya for an age mixes unit systems, and tempts capitalization errors: "million" need not be capitalized, but "mega" must be; "ma" would technically imply a milliyear (a ...

    Here, the base units are the quad, equal to 10 7 m (approximately a quadrant of the Earth's circumference), the eleventhgram, equal to 10 −11 g, and the second. These were chosen so that the corresponding electrical units of potential difference, current and resistance had a convenient magnitude. [36]: 268 [37]: 17

  8. 1,000,000 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,000,000

    In scientific notation, it is written as 1 × 10 6 or 10 6. [9] Physical quantities can also be expressed using the SI prefix mega (M), when dealing with SI units; for example, 1 megawatt (1 MW) equals 1,000,000 watts .

  9. Steinhaus–Moser notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinhaus–Moser_notation

    mega is the number equivalent to 2 in a circle: ②; megiston is the number equivalent to 10 in a circle: ⑩; Moser's number is the number represented by "2 in a megagon". Megagon is here the name of a polygon with "mega" sides (not to be confused with the polygon with one million sides). Alternative notations: use the functions square(x) and ...
