Question

A micrometer is one-millionth of a meter (0.000001): ten thousand times shorter than a centimeter (0.01). How many micrometer one is one edge of a centimeter cube?

Answer 1

One edge of a centimeter cube is equal to 10,000 micrometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many micrometers are in one edge of a centimeter cube, we need to convert the measurement from centimeters to micrometers.

We know that 1 centimeter is equal to 0.01 meters, and 1 meter is equal to 1,000,000 micrometers.

So, to convert, we multiply 0.01 cm by 1,000,000 μm/cm to get the answer.

0.01 cm x 1,000,000 μm/cm

= 10,000 μm

Therefore, one edge of a centimeter cube is equal to 10,000 micrometers.

Answer 2

If a cube has an edge of one centimeter and one centimeter is ten thousand times longer than a micrometer, then the edge has ten thousand micrometers.

I hope that's what you meant :)
