Question 4 of 7
How many micrometres are there in a millimetre?
Type in all zeros, eg 0.00000673, 10000
There are a thousand micrometres in a millimetre.
1 µm = 10-6m
1 mm = 10-3m
Thus there are 10-3 ie 103 or 1000 micrometres in a millimetre.
10-6
No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 5 of 7
How many nanometres are there in a micrometre?
Type in all zeros, eg 0.00000673, 100000
There are a thousand nanometres in a micrometre.
1 µm = 10-6m
1 nm = 10-9m
Thus
1 micrometre 10-6 ie 103 or 1000 times larger than a nanometre.
10-9
No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 6 of 7
How many Angstroms are there in a nanometre?
Type in all zeros, eg 0.00000673, 1000000
There are ten Angstroms in a nanometre.
1 Å = 10-10m
1 nm = 10-9m
Thus:
1 nanometre is 10-9 times ie 101 or 10 times larger than an Angstrom.
10-10
No, that is not the correct answer.
