A micrometer (μm) is a distance. Things that are millionths of a meter long or thick (microbes, radio waves, hair diameter, thread, thickness of layers of paint, ...)
A micrometer is also measuring tool or instrument. A micrometer can typically measure to an accuracy of 1 thousandth of an inch or an accuracy of 1 hundredth of a millimeter. Micrometers are used by Engineers to measure and to check the size of parts which they make.

∙ 11y agoif the substance is a solid, calculate the weight of the soldi in micrograms (microgram = micromoles x molecular weight) and weigh the solid using a 6 digit balance to transfer the solid.
if the substance is a liquid, calculate the volume of the liquid in microlitres (microlitres = micromoles x molecular weight / density) and use a microsyringe to transfer the liquid.

What is micro manometer pressure?
A manometer is a pressure gauge. A micro manometer is either a really small pressure gauge, or a pressure gauge used to measure really small pressure difference.
What are micrometers use to measure?
By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that Micrometers are used to measure micro particles like molecules and atoms in an element or a substance.
How many millawatts is in a amp?
A micro-amp is a measure of current. Power in Watts is a function of the current and voltage. Impossible to answer your question without knowing the voltage. For example, 1 uA (micro-amp) x 10 Volts = 10 micro-Watts, but 1uA x 1,000.000 Volts = 1Watt.
How do you convert micro amps to amps?
The prefix 'micro' means, one millionth. So there are one million micro amps in one amp
What is the function of micro-ammeter?
A microampere is simply one millionth (1x10-6) of an ampere.
What is the prefix meaning for small?
micro, i.e. micro-scopic, micro-organism, micro-dot, etc.
How do you convert 100 meg ohms to micro amps?
Ohms is a unit of resistance. Amps is a measure of current. They are related by Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance. In your example Resistance = 100 x 10 to the 6th power So V in Micro volts over 100 would yield current expressed as micro amps. So if you had 100 volts you would have 1 micro amp.
What prefix is smaller 'deci-' or 'micro-'?
Micro-. Both the prefixes 'deci-' and 'micro-' describe a certain amount of whatever unit of measure is being used. They owe their usage to the French Revolutionaries setting up a standard system of measures and weights. In that system, the prefix 'deci-' refers to one-tenth of whatever unit is being used. The prefix 'micro-' refers to one-millionth. Therefore, the prefix 'micro-' refers to a smaller quantity under consideration than does a 'deci-'.
