To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 10-6 and 10-5 m (1 µm and 10 µm).
- Distances shorter than 1 µm
- 1 µm is equal to
- 1.55 µm — wavelength of light used in optical fibre
- 6 µm — anthrax spore
- 6-8 µm — diameter of a human red blood cell
- 7 µm — diameter of the nucleus of typical eukaryotic cell
- 7 µm — width of strand of spider web [1] (http://www.carnicom.com/micro2.htm)
- 1-10 µm — diameter of typical bacterium
- about 10 µm — size of a fog, mist or cloud water droplet
- Distances longer than 10 µm
