On a ruler or tape measure, 512 millimeters (mm) would be equivalent to 51.2 centimeters (cm) or approximately 20.2 inches. If using a standard ruler, it would extend beyond the typical 30 cm length, requiring a tape measure for accurate measurement. The 512 mm mark would be located a little over halfway between the 50 cm and 60 cm marks on a metric tape.
Some of the standard instruments used to measure length are a ruler, meter scale, measuring tape, vernier caliper, and screw gauge. To measure very long lengths like the length of a road we use measuring tape
A ruler or a metric tape measure is commonly used to measure length in the metric system. These instruments typically have units of centimeters or millimeters for more precise measurements.

If you want to measure the length, use a ruler.
To measure in millimeters (mm), use a ruler or measuring tape with markings in millimeters. To measure in centimeters (cm), use a ruler or measuring tape with centimeter markings. For meters (m), use a meter stick or measuring tape with markings in meters. Simply align the start point of the object you are measuring with the zero mark on the ruler or tape and read the measurement at the endpoint.

A bar scale is like a ruler or measuring tape. It can measure long distances.
A tape measure or ruler is commonly used to measure the length of a desk.
get a tape measure or a ruler and measure it
why might you need to measure a perimeter with a measuring tape insteadof a ruler.
It is unlikely that a tape measure will extend that long, but 104.166... feet.
