What are Centimeter and Millimeter

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one-hundredth of a meter. Defined as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second, a centimeter represents a convenient measure for everyday lengths and is widely used in various fields such as construction and tailoring.

Definition of Millimeter

A millimeter, representing one-thousandth of a meter, is a minute measurement of length in the metric system. It is commonly used for small objects and fine measurements in engineering, manufacturing, and science. The millimeter is a crucial unit in applications demanding precision, such as the design of mechanical components.
