What are Kilometer and Megameter

Definition of Kilometer

A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one thousand meters. It's commonly used to measure distances between geographical locations on land. The kilometer is part of the International System of Units (SI) and is used worldwide for road signs and maps, as its convenient measurement scale easily relates to human-scale distances.

Definition of Megameter

A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one million meters. It's not as commonly used in everyday measurements as kilometers or meters but is helpful in scientific contexts and for measuring large-scale geographical distances such as those between cities or countries. The megameter is also part of the International System of Units (SI).
