	Centimetre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A centimetre (US: centimeter) is a factor of the SI unit of length: there are one hundred centimeters in the base unit of measure, the metre.
		A centimetre is approximately the width of an adult fingernail or the fl keys of a piano.
		One cubic centimetre in volume is equal to one millilitre.

		The swap partners were determined during the scheduling (virtually all centimetre projects were considered as a potential partner to swap with a millimetre proposal), generally not by the observers.
		Although the centimetre observer was alerted to this during the early stage of the observation, they were not in a position to resolve the problem.
		A centimetre of capacitance is the capacitance between a sphere of radius 1 cm in vacuum and infinity.

		If the weather was poor when the 3mm project came to observe, then the centimetre project could be swapped in, and the 3mm project deferred to the centimetre slot.
		The centimetre proposer was responsible for observing the centimetre program only if the swap did not happen.
		A disadvantage of the swap scheme has been that the centimetre observers have had little say in whether their project is a suitable candidate for swapping.

		On the other hand, the radio flux at 10.7 centimetres can be measured relatively easily and quickly and has replaced the sunspot number as an index of solar activity for many purposes.

		The square centimetre is introduced first, because it is small enough to measure common objects.
		The children should be encouraged to develop their own reference for a centimetre, for example, a fingernail or a small button.
		As the children become familiar with the size of the square centimetre they should be given many opportunities to estimate before using precise measurement.

	Perplexing Perimeters
		In the process of constructing their own “rulers” the students develop a sense of the size of a centimetre and metre.
		As the students select the appropriate “ruler” for the tasks they learn to choose that the section of the measuring instrument we are using/making is determined by the exactness of the measurement needed.
		This unit also provides opportunities for the students to appreciate that all measurements are approximate and that the selection of the measuring tool for a task depends on the precision required.

		If 2003 saw a number of broadsheet papers switch to the international format of seven columns from the traditional eight columns in terms of layout and size, 2004 could be the year when newspapers in general set about redefining parameters of advertising space.
		In other words, column centimetre could give way to square centimetre as the de facto unit of measurement of advertising space.
		The Lokmat group, however, continues to use the eight-column format as opposed to the seven-column initiative adopted by many, though the overall size of the paper is down to 32 cm, implying, that per-column width has reduced.

	Centimeter gram second system of units - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		CGS units are today no longer accepted by the house styles of most scientific journals, textbook publishers and standards bodies.
		The units gram and centimetre remain useful within the SI, especially for instructional physics and chemistry experiments, where they match well the small scales of table-top setups.
		Further complicating matters is the fact that some physicists and engineers in the United States use hybrid units, such as volts per centimeter for electric field.

	Scheduling the ATNF at millimetre wavelengths
		When the observations switch to centimetre wavelengths, a choice has to be made of which centimetre project to observe.
		Thus if a centimetre observer were observing in a suitable configuration, and the weather became suitable for millimetre observing, then the array could be switched to millimetre observing and the centimetre project would then be placed in the backup queue for observing by millimetre observers when conditions became appropriate.
		In either case, the millimetre or centimetre observer would be guaranteed his/her observing time by the end of the term.

	Precision and Accuracy .........
		Because the smallest unit on the ruler you are using is one centimetre, the precision of your measurement is to the nearest centimetre.
		Because the smallest unit on the ruler you are now using is one millimetre (one tenth of a centimetre), the precision of your measurement is to the nearest millimetre, or tenth of a centimetre.
		Suppose for example, you purchased a very expensive measuring device, with units of one thousandth of a centimetre, and measured the pencil again.

		The project coordinators urge that caution be exercised in interpreting any of the trend data because they say longer term recordings are needed.
