Nautical Mile
Definition: A nautical mile (symbol: nmi or M) is 1,852 meters or approximately 1.1508 statute miles. It is based on Earth’s circumference and used in navigation.
History: Developed from the geographical mile (1 minute of latitude). The international nautical mile was standardized in 1929 for maritime and aviation use.
Current use: Globally adopted for sea navigation (nautical charts), aviation (flight plans), and maritime law (e.g., 12-nautical-mile territorial limit).
Micrometer (µm)
Definition: A micrometer (symbol: µm), or micron, is one-millionth of a meter (0.000001 m). It measures microscopic structures like cells and wavelengths of infrared light.
History: Gained prominence with the development of microscopy in the 17th century. The term 'micron' was officially deprecated in 1967 in favor of 'micrometer' to align with SI standards.
Current use: Critical in biology (cell diameters), semiconductor manufacturing (transistor features), and air quality monitoring (particulate matter like PM2.5).
