1 E-6 m (original) (raw)
To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 1 micrometre and 10 micrometre (10-6 and 10-5 m). See also lengths of other orders of magnitude.
- Distances shorter than 1 �m
- 1 �m is equal to:
- 1.55 �m -- Wavelength of light used in optical fibre
- 6 �m -- anthrax spore
- 6-8 �m -- diameter of a human red blood cell
- 7 �m -- diameter of the nucleus of typical eukariotic cell
- 7 �m -- width of strand of spider web [1]
- 1-10 �m -- diameter of typical bacterium
- approximately 10 �m: size of a fog, mist or cloud water droplet
- Distances longer than 10 �m
