A decametre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures and by most English speaking countries, [1] [2] United States spelling dekameter or decameter [3] [4]), symbol dam ("da" for the SI prefix deca-, [1] "m" for the SI unit metre), is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equal to ten metres.
570 fm – typical distance from the atomic nucleus of the two innermost electrons (electrons in the 1s shell) in the uranium atom, the heaviest naturally-occurring atom 1 picometer The picometre ( SI symbol: pm ) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −12 metres ( 1 / 1 000 000 000 000 m = 0. 000 000 000 001 m ).
The derived units in the SI are formed by powers, products, or quotients of the base units and are unlimited in number. [5]: 103 [4]: 14, 16 Arrangement of the principal measurements in physics based on the mathematical manipulation of length, time, and mass

TEC is the total number of electrons integrated between two points, along a tube of one meter squared cross section, i.e., the electron columnar number density. It is often reported in multiples of the so-called TEC unit, defined as TECU=10 16 el/m 2 ≈ 1.66 × 10 −8 mol⋅m −2. [1]
The prefix was a part of the original metric system in 1795. It is not in very common usage, although the decapascal is occasionally used by audiologists.The decanewton is also encountered occasionally, probably because it is an SI approximation of the kilogram-force.
The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured.
