Conversion Factors: Length

This document provides conversion factors for various units of length, time, mass, volume, and temperature. It lists equivalencies between kilometers, meters, centimeters, millimeters, microns, angstroms, inches, feet, and miles for units of length. For time, it provides conversions between picoseconds, nanoseconds, microseconds, milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and fortnights. Conversions are also included between kilograms, pounds, and slugs for mass. Volume conversions listed are between liters, cubic meters, cubic feet, US gallons, British gallons, quarts and inches cubed. Finally, temperatures can be converted between Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kel
