Cubic Millimeter
A cubic millimeter (mm^3) is a unit of volume equal to the volume of a cube measuring 1 millimeter on each side.
History/Origin
The cubic millimeter has been used in scientific and engineering contexts for precise measurements of small volumes, especially in fields like biology and materials science, as a subdivision of the cubic centimeter and cubic meter units.
Current Use
It is currently used in scientific research, medical measurements, and engineering to quantify small volumes accurately, particularly in microscopy, microfluidics, and material testing.
Megaliter
A megaliter (ML) is a unit of volume equal to one million liters.
History/Origin
The megaliter is part of the metric system, introduced as a larger unit for measuring large volumes, especially in water management and environmental contexts, following the adoption of the metric system in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Current Use
Megaliters are used today in fields such as hydrology, water resource management, and environmental science to quantify large volumes of liquids, particularly water.
