    The nanometre (SI symbol: nm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −9 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 ⁠ m = 0. 000 000 001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −9 and 10 −8 m (1 nm and 10 nm). 1 nm – diameter of a carbon nanotube

    For example, if a person places a force of 10 N at the terminal end of a wrench that is 0.5 m long (or a force of 10 N acting 0.5 m from the twist point of a wrench of any length), the torque will be 5 N⋅m – assuming that the person moves the wrench by applying force in the plane of movement and perpendicular to the wrench.

  6. International System of Units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units

    The conversion between different SI units for one and the same physical quantity is always through a power of ten. This is why the SI (and metric systems more generally) are called decimal systems of measurement units. [10] The grouping formed by a prefix symbol attached to a unit symbol (e.g. ' km ', ' cm ') constitutes a new inseparable unit ...

    Metric measurements of torque should be expressed in Newton metres (N·m). In some cases power figures should be written in imperial units first, with the metric conversion in parentheses. Imperial measurements of power should be expressed in horsepower (hp), or brake horsepower (bhp) for British and pre-1972 American vehicles.

    A 50 m × 25 m (164 ft × 82 ft) Olympic swimming pool, built to the FR3 minimum depth of 2 metres (6.6 ft) would hold 2,500 m 3 (660,000 US gal). The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) defines the Olympic swimming pool as 1 million litres, which is the approximate volume of the smaller FR2 pool.
