To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 100 µm and 1 mm (10-4 m and 10-3 m). See also lengths of other orders of magnitude.
- Shorter distances
- 100 micrometre is equal to
- 1/10th of a millimetre,
- 0.00394 inches.
- 125 µm, length of a dust mite
- 200 µm, typical length of Paramecium caudatum, a ciliate protist
- 340 µm, approximate size of the dot at the end of this sentence (where is the dot at?!?); also the length of a single pixel on a 17" monitor with a resolution of 1024*768
- 500 µm, MEMS micro-engine
- 500 µm, diameter of a human ovum
- 500 µm, typical length of Amœba proteus, an amoeboid protist
- Longer distances
