With recorded lengths of just over 100 feet, you could measure a Blue Whale in either meters or yards and feet.

well obviously meters.

You could use either, but meters would be easier to use. A millimeter is about as long as a pencil lead is wide. A meter is about the distance from an adult's nose to the end of their stretched out arm. A whale would be a LOT of millimeters long!

Whales are typically measured in meters due to their large size. Millimeters would be too small of a unit to measure a whale effectively.

How would you measure the length of your arm in meters decimeters centimeters kilometers millimeters decameters?

You can measure the length of your arm in centimeters or millimeters. To convert this measurement to meters, you would divide by 1000 for millimeters or 100 for centimeters. The other units like decimeters, kilometers, and decameters are not typically used for measuring the length of a human arm.


What metric units does a cylinder use and why?

To measure a diameter, or length, you would use meters, centimeters, or millimeters. To measure the surface area, use square meters, etc. To measure the volume, use cubic meters, etc.


What do you use to measure a school hallway meters kilometers centimeters millimeters?

You would typically use a measuring tape or a ruler to measure the length of a school hallway in meters, centimeters, or millimeters. If you need to measure longer distances in kilometers, you might use a measuring wheel or a GPS device.


How do you convert meters to milliliters?

Meters and milliliters measure different things - meters measure length, while milliliters measure volume. To convert meters to milliliters, you would need to know the volume of the object and the dimensions in meters so you can calculate the volume in cubic meters, which can then be converted to milliliters.


Why does meters times centimeters times millimeters equal Liters?

Multiplying meters by centimeters by millimeters does not equal liters. Liters are a unit of volume, while meters, centimeters, and millimeters are units of length. To convert between the two, you would need to use the appropriate conversion factors based on the dimensions of the object being measured.
