Planck Length
The Planck length is the smallest possible unit of length in the universe, approximately 1.6 x 10⁻³⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The Planck length is derived from fundamental physical constants and is named after the physicist Max Planck. It is a fundamental unit in the system of Planck units.
Current Use
The Planck length is a theoretical concept used in quantum gravity and cosmology to describe phenomena at the smallest scales of the universe.
Millimeter
A millimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-thousandth of a meter.
History/Origin
The prefix "milli-" comes from the Latin word "mille," meaning thousand. The millimeter was part of the original metric system adopted in France in 1795.
Current Use
The millimeter is widely used in engineering and manufacturing for high-precision measurements. It is also a common unit in construction and for measuring small objects.
