Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter, commonly used to measure small quantities of liquids.
History/Origin
The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century, aligning with the liter as the base unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
The milliliter is widely used in science, medicine, cooking, and everyday measurements to quantify liquids and small volumes.
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.
