There are 1000 microseconds in 1 millisecond, or 0.001 milliseconds equals 1 microsecond.
One microsecond is equal to one millionth (1e-6) of a second).
(1 centimeter/microsecond) x (1 inch/2.54 cm) x (1 million microsecond / second) = 393,701 inch/second Multiply ( centimeters/microsecond ) by 393,701 to get ( inches/second ).
1 microsecond = 1/1000000 sec 1000000 microseconds = (1/1000000) x 1000000 = 1 sec
A microsecond is faster by a factor of 1000. It takes 1000 microseconds to make 1 millisecond, and it takes 1000 milliseconds to make 1 second.
