1 hectometre

To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 100 metres and 1 kilometre.

• Shorter distances

• 100 m -- wavelength of the highest medium wave radio frequency, 3 MHz

• 100 m -- 328 feet.

• 100 m -- side of square of area 1 hectare

• 105 m -- length of soccer field

• 187 m -- shortest wavelength of the broadcast radio AM band, 1600 kHz

• 452 m -- height of the Petronas Tower,

• 555 m -- longest wavelength of the broadcast radio AM band, 540 kHz

• 1 km = 0.62 miles.

• 1 km -- wavelength of the lowest medium wave radio frequency, 300 kHz

• Longer distances
