Wavelengths of red light are contained in 0.001 MM?
Wavelength of red light is about 700 nanometers. ie 700 x 10 to the minus 9 meters. You may also come across units called Angstroms for light wavelengths-these were current when I was a physics student but went out of fashion. 1 Angstrom = 1/10 nm
What is a unit of measuring wavelength of light?
The SI unit is meter. But nanometer and angstrom are commonly used units to measure the wavelength of light.
What is the wavelngth in micrometers for UV?
We consider ultraviolet (UV) light, which has shorter wavelengths than visible light and longer wavelengths than X-rays, to fall in the range of 10 nm to 400 nm. This wavelength is given in nanometer units, which are 10-9 meters. A micrometer is 10-6 meters, so converting nanometers to micrometers involves multiplication by 103 or 1,000. This gives us a range of wavelengths of 10,000 micrometers to 400,000 micrometers for UV light., corresponding to photon energies from 3 eV to 124 eV
What is the unit of sound and light?
Several units are used, depending on what you want to measure. For example, in the case of sound, you can use units of energy, of intensity (energy/area), of wavelength, frequency, speed, and probably a few more.

What are the units called that measure distances to stars?
They measure them in light-years.
What are the different units of measure in the SI system?
SI (French abbreviation for "International System") is, in English, the metric system. So the standard measure in SI is the meter.
