What is a micron?

A micron, also known as a micrometer, is a unit of length commonly used in scientific and engineering fields. It is derived from the metric system and is equal to one millionth of a meter, or 0.000001 meters. The symbol for micron is μm, which is a lowercase Greek letter mu followed by the letter "m".

The use of microns allows for precise and accurate measurements in various scientific and industrial applications. It provides a more detailed and standardized way to describe small distances or dimensions, especially when dealing with objects on a microscopic scale. Understanding the concept of a micron is essential for scientists, engineers, and technicians who work with minute measurements and need to convert between different units of length.

What is an inch?

An inch is a length unit normally used in the United States and, occasionally, in the United Kingdom. It is defined as a twelth (1/12th) of a foot. The inch is normally subdivided into fractions of an inch such as the ½, ¼ and ⅛.

Historically, an inch was originally based on the width of a man's thumb. The inch is still commonly used in the United States for everyday measurements and worldwide for the size of TV and computer screens and clothing.

Inches are used in combination with other units of imperial measurement such as feet and yards. For example, a standard door in the United States a football field is 100 yards long or 300 feet or 3,600 inches.
