You can do the reverse unit conversion from micrometre to decimetros, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "deci" represents a factor of 10-1, or in exponential notation, 1E-1.
So 1 decimetro = 10-1 metros.
The definition of a metro is as follows:
El metro es la unidad de longitud del Sistema Internacional de Unidades. Se define como la longitud del trayecto recorrido en el vacío por la luz durante un tiempo de 1/299 792 458 de segundo (unidad de tiempo) (aproximadamente 3,34 ns).
A micrometre (American spelling: micrometer, symbol µm) is an SI unit of length equal to one millionth of a metre, or about a tenth of the size of a droplet of mist or fog. It is also commonly known as a micron, although that term is officially outdated. It can be written in the expanded mathmatical notation (1×10-6 m)
The symbol µ is the "micro sign", which should look identical to the Greek letter mu (?) (the two may or may not look the same, depending on the font). The symbol "um" is sometimes used, when the µ and ? are not available, for example when using a typewriter.
The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation. Some people (especially in astronomy and the semiconductor business) use the old name micron and/or the solitary symbol µ (both of which were official between 1879 and 1967) to denote a micrometre. This practice persists in the face of official discouragement, perhaps to help disambiguate between the unit of measurement and the micrometer, a measuring device.
