At least one use of femto- is in pulsed laser physics. Laser pulses of 50 femtoseconds can precisely remove material one atomic layer at a time without heating the surroundings. They can laser cut explosives without setting them off.

How many coulomb are in 1.0 pico?
You need to state what pico relates to. For instance one picocoulomb is 1x10-12 coulomb.
How many picograms makes a gram?
1 Pico Gram = 1 x 10^-12 Grams
How many picograms in 1 microgram?
Pico means 1/1,000,000,000,000. Micro means 1/1,000,000. Therefore there are 1,000,000 picograms in a microgram.
How many picoseconds are there in 1seconds?
"pico..." = 10-12 (one trillionth) 1 second = one trillion picoseconds = 1012 picoseconds = 1,000,000,000,000 picoseconds
How do prefixes micro nano and pico relate to each other?
They are different prefixes for amounts less than unity:kilo = 1/1000micro = 1/1,000,000nano = 1/1,000,000,000pico = 1/1,000,000,000,000
How many picometer made a meter?
The prefix "pico" means ten to the power -12; 1 divided by that is 10 to the power 12.This applies whether you use the prefix "pico" with meters, seconds, or any other measure.
Value of pico?
The prefix pico refers to 1x10-12 of a unit.
What is the prefix of pico?
Pico means 10-12 = 0.000000000001
What is the factor pico?
Pico (symbol p) is a prefix in the metric system denoting one trillionth.
What is the fraction prefix meaning 1 trillionth?
pico
Fraction prefix meaning 1 trillionth?
pico
What does the prefix pico- indicate?
It indicates 10-12 of a unit.
What does micro micro mean in metric prefix. I know this was an older designation used for a metric prefix. Was it used for nano or pico?
"Micro micro" was an older designation used for a metric prefix that is now known as the prefix "pico," which represents one trillionth (1/1,000,000,000,000). The use of "micro micro" was eventually replaced by the standardized SI prefixes to avoid confusion.
What is the conversion factor of pico?
Pico- (symbol p) is a prefix in the metric system denoting one trillionth, a factor of 10^−12 (0.000000000001).
What metric prefix comes after pica?
I think you pico rather than pica. The prefix pico- represents a factor of 10-12, or 0.000 000 000 001. The next smallest prefix is femto- 10-15, or 0.000 000 000 000 001. Pico- is one step down from nano- which is 10-9, 0.000 000 001.
What does the prefix pi -co mean in maths?
It's pico, and it is 10-12
What is the Greek fractional prefix meaning one one-billionth?
nano
