How do you read dimensions of bolts I am trying to sell motorcycle fairing bolts I have a lot and I found somewhere that shows the sizes but how do you measure the metric bolts they say 6x14 6x16?

The first number is the diameter of the bolt in millimeters and the second is the length in millimeters.
So just like a 1/2 x 6 US bolt is 1/2 inch in diameter and 6 inches long...
a 6x14 metric bolt will be 6 millimeters in diameter and 14 millimeters long.
There is another measurement you may have to worry about with larger sizes. Namely the thread pitch. In metric you typically only see fine thread bolts starting at 8mm (8 millimeter diameter) and up.
You may see measurements like 8 x 1.0 x 40. This would be an 8mm diameter bolt 40mm long with a 1.0 thread pitch. The standard pitch for 8mm bolts is 1.25 so this would be a fine thread bolt.

How do you find dimensions?
You take a ruler or tape measure and measure the dimensions you need.
How do you measure a dimensions of a door?
With a tape measure
What are the dimensions of a pint?
A pint is a measure of volume so its dimensions are [L3].
What do you measure to get volume?
The dimensions of the container.
How do you find areas in Cm2?
Measure the linear dimensions in cm and then calculate the area using the appropriate formula. or measure the linear dimensions in metres, calculate the area and mutiply by 10000 or measure the linear dimensions in millimetres, calculate the area and divide by 100.
How many pounds is this 920mmx70kg?
This question cannot be answered. A pound is a measure of mass and so has dimensions [M]. A kilogram is a measure of mass and so has dimensions [M]. A millimetre is a measure of distance and so has dimensions [L]. So a mm * kg has dimensions [ML]. There is a mismatch in dimensions between pounds and mm*kg which means that any conversion between the two is not valid.
How do you know that you have a health dimensions?
you can measure it with a ruler.

How do you get the dimensions of a rectangular table?
You measure them, using a ruler or tape measure or similar.
What does it mean to say that a liquid has a denfinite volume but no denfinite shape?
It means that you can measure the volume of the liquid but you cannot measure the dimensions of it because it will take the dimensions of the container it is in. Example: glass of water - liquid - you can measure how much water is there ice cube - water - solid - you can also measure the dimensions and size of the cube
Can a tape measure be used to measure the volume of something?
Yes. You can find the dimensions of the object (Assuming the dimensions are measurable) and calculate its volume in centimeters cubed.
How do you change ml into cm?
You do not. A millilitre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A centimetre is a measure of distance, with dimensions [L]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.
