A square millimeter (mm2), sometimes written as sq mm, is a unit of area in the metric system.
It represents a tiny area equal to one-millionth of a square meter (10-6 m2).
A square millimeter is a minuscule unit of area, representing a square with sides that are each one millimeter long.
To put its size into perspective, the head of a common pin is approximately one to two square millimeters. A single grain of fine sand can also cover an area of about one mm2.
This small scale makes it the ideal unit for measuring minute surfaces with high precision.
The square millimeter is a crucial unit in many technical and scientific fields. Its precision is essential for:
As part of the International System of Units (SI), the square millimeter relates directly to other standard units of area, making conversions straightforward.
The most common conversions are:
This simple, base-10 relationship is a key advantage of the metric system, particularly in scientific and international contexts.
An acre (ac) is a common unit of area used to measure land in the United States and the United Kingdom.
It is equal to exactly 43,560 square feet.
Because it can be hard to picture that size, this guide breaks down the acre's origins, dimensions, and how it compares to other units.
The acre has deep roots in agriculture. Historically, it was defined as the amount of land that one person with a single ox could plow in one day.
This practical, work-based unit was measured as an area one "furlong" long (660 feet) by one "chain" wide (66 feet).
This origin explains why the acre became a standard for land measurement long before modern units were adopted.
Many people ask about the dimensions of an acre, but because it's a measure of area, it has no required shape or specific length.
While it equals 43,560 square feet, it doesn't have to be a perfect square. An acre can be a long rectangle, an L-shape, or even a circle—as long as the total area adds up.
To help you visualize an acre, imagine a standard American football field, including the end zones. One football field is about 1.32 acres, which means a single acre would cover about three-quarters of it.
While the acre is standard in the US, most of the world uses the hectare, a metric unit of land measurement.
This difference is crucial for anyone working in international real estate, agriculture, or science.
