What are the size differences between a meter centimeter millimeter micrometer and a nanometer?
A metre is the basic SI unit for length and distance. It is roughly equal to three and a third imperial feet. The prefixes indicate a varying order of magnitude of a metre; * centi- = one-hundredth; the width of an adult's pinky finger. * milli- = one-thousandth (one-tenth of centi-); about the thickness of 10 sheets of paper. * micro- = one-millionth (one-thousandth of a one-thousandth); human red blood cells are 6-8 micrometres wide. * nano- = one-billionth (one-thousandth of a one-millionth or vice versa); DNA is 2 nanometres wide.

What is lesser than millimeter?
-- micrometer -- nanometer -- picometer . . etc.
Is there something smaller than a millimeter?
There is the micrometer and the nanometer(1 billionth of a meter)
What unit of measure is smaller than a millimeter?
Unit of measurement 1000 times less than the millimeter is the micrometer. Unit of measurement 1,000,000 times less than the millimeter is the nanometer.
What unit would you use to measure small lengths?
Depending how small it is, you could use the meter, the millimeter, the micron (= micrometer), the nanometer, etc. The meter is approximately the height of a child; the millimeter is 1/1000 of that, the micron is a millionth of a meter, the nanometer is a billionth of a meter.

What is before a millimeter?
When you say "what is after", I assume you mean the next smallest. while a millimeter is 1x10-3 meters, the next smallest most commonly used unit of measure is the micrometer which is 1 x 10-6 meters.

Which is larger centimeter or milLim?
A centimeter is larger than a millimeter. There are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter.
Is anything smaller then a millimeter?
Yes, there are units for measuring smaller lengths than a millimeter. For example, a micrometer is one millionth of a meter, and a nanometer is one billionth of a meter. These units are commonly used in fields such as nanotechnology and microbiology to measure very small distances.
What unit of measure is smaller than a millimeter?
Unit of measurement 1000 times less than the millimeter is the micrometer. Unit of measurement 1,000,000 times less than the millimeter is the nanometer.
What is smaller than a milimetre?
In the SI system, the micrometer (one thousandth of a millimeter) and nanometer (one thousandth of a micrometer) are used. Outside the SI system, the ångström is also used - it is one tenth of a nanometer, and is useful for measuring atomic distances.
What is larger nanometer or micrometer?
One micrometer is larger than one nanometer. One micrometer is equal to 1000 nanometers.
