Converting 0.2 mm² to m²
This article explains how to convert 0.2 mm² (square millimeters) to m² (square meters).
Understanding the Conversion
To convert between square millimeters and square meters, we need to understand the relationship between millimeters and meters.
- 1 meter (m) = 1000 millimeters (mm)
Since we're dealing with areas, we need to square this relationship:
- 1 m² = (1000 mm)² = 1,000,000 mm²
Therefore, there are 1,000,000 square millimeters in 1 square meter.
Conversion Calculation
To convert 0.2 mm² to m², we divide by the conversion factor:
0.2 mm² / 1,000,000 mm²/m² = 0.0000002 m²
Expressing the Result
The result, 0.0000002 m², can be expressed in scientific notation for easier readability:
2 x 10⁻⁷ m²
Conclusion
Therefore, 0.2 mm² is equal to 2 x 10⁻⁷ m².
