Micrometers (µm) measure cells (human cell = ~10–30 µm), bacteria (1–5 µm), and microelectronics. Pollen grains are ~15–100 µm wide. The Kilometer (km) is used for longer distances like city-to-city travel (e.g., 50 km), marathon races (42.195 km), or highway spans (e.g., 100 km). It's also used in aviation and sports like cycling.
To convert between Micrometer (µm) and Kilometer (km), use the following formulas:
1 Micrometer (µm) = 9.999999999999999e-10 Kilometer (km)
1 Kilometer (km) = 1000000000 Micrometer (µm)
1 µm = 1 * 9.999999999999999e-10 km = 9.999999999999999e-10 km
10 µm = 10 * 9.999999999999999e-10 km = 9.999999999999999e-9 km
50 µm = 50 * 9.999999999999999e-10 km = 4.999999999999999e-8 km
100 µm = 100 * 9.999999999999999e-10 km = 9.999999999999998e-8 km
500 µm = 500 * 9.999999999999999e-10 km = 5e-7 km
