A short long metric foot is called a 'meter' in the metric system. The meter is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to approximately 3.28 feet in the imperial system.
The term for measuring long distances in the metric system is kilometers.
To measure from a known point using the English system, use feet and inches. For example, if a known point is 10 feet away, you would measure out 10 feet. In the metric system, you would use meters or centimeters. If the known point is 3 meters away, you would measure out 3 meters.
5 milliwatts (mW) is a unit of power, not length, so it cannot be converted directly to feet.
The US customary system uses units like inches, feet, and yards, while the metric system uses units like millimeters, meters, and kilometers. The US customary system is less consistent and harder to convert between units, while the metric system is based on powers of 10, making conversions easier.
