What are Micron and Dekameter

Definition of Micron

A micron, also known as a micrometer, is a unit of length equal to one millionth of a meter. Denoted as 'µm', it's a standard unit in the metric system used to measure tiny distances, such as the wavelengths of infrared radiation, the sizes of biological cells, and the widths of microscopic fibers.

Definition of Dekameter

A dekameter, sometimes spelled decameter, is a unit of length in the metric system equal to ten meters. Represented as 'dam', it is less commonly used than other metric units, but it serves a purpose for measuring larger distances that do not require the precision of meters or the breadth of kilometers.

Micron to Dekameter Conversion Table

Micron (µm) Dekameter (dam)
10,000 µm 0.001 dam
20,000 µm 0.002 dam
50,000 µm 0.005 dam
100,000 µm 0.01 dam
200,000 µm 0.02 dam
500,000 µm 0.05 dam
1,000,000 µm 0.1 dam
2,000,000 µm 0.2 dam
5,000,000 µm 0.5 dam
10,000,000 µm 1 dam

Conversion of Micron to Dekameter

1 µm = 0.0000001 dam
1 dam = 10,000,000 µm

Example 1:
convert 25,000,000 µm to dam:
25,000,000 µm = 25,000,000 × 0.0000001 dam = 2.5 dam

Example 2:
convert 7,500,000 µm to dam:
7,500,000 µm = 7,500,000 × 0.0000001 dam = 0.75 dam
