Mil
A mil, also known as a thou, is a unit of length equal to one-thousandth of an inch.
History/Origin
The mil was introduced in the 19th century as a convenient unit for fine measurements in engineering and manufacturing.
Current Use
The mil is still used in some manufacturing and engineering contexts, particularly in the United States, for specifying the thickness of materials like paper and wire.
Femtometer
A femtometer is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^-15 meters. It is also known as a fermi.
History/Origin
The prefix "femto-" for 10^-15 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1964. The unit is also named after the physicist Enrico Fermi.
Current Use
The femtometer is primarily used in nuclear physics to measure the size of atomic nuclei.
