A fingernail is about a square centimeter.
To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists areas between 10−4 m2 and 10−3 m2 (1 to 10 square centimetres).
See also areas of other orders of magnitude.
- Areas smaller than 1 square centimetre
- 1 cm2 is equal to:
- 1 E-4 m2
- 1–2 cm2 -- Area of a typical thumb nail (See Rule of thumb)
- 5 cm2 -- Area of a typical postage stamp
- Areas larger than 10 square centimetres
