Cord
A cord is a unit of volume used to measure firewood and other stacked materials, equal to 128 cubic feet (3.62 cubic meters).
History/Origin
The cord originated in North America in the 17th century as a practical measure for stacking firewood, with its size standardized in the 19th century to facilitate trade and measurement consistency.
Current Use
Today, the cord is primarily used in the United States and Canada for selling and purchasing firewood and other bulk materials, with standardized measurements to ensure fair trade.
Cubic Millimeter
A cubic millimeter (mm^3) is a unit of volume equal to the volume of a cube measuring 1 millimeter on each side.
History/Origin
The cubic millimeter has been used in scientific and engineering contexts for precise measurements of small volumes, especially in fields like biology and materials science, as a subdivision of the cubic centimeter and cubic meter units.
Current Use
It is currently used in scientific research, medical measurements, and engineering to quantify small volumes accurately, particularly in microscopy, microfluidics, and material testing.
