Nanometers (nm) are critical in nanotechnology, biology (DNA helix = 2 nm wide), and computing (transistors are 3–5 nm). A human hair is ~80,000 nm thick. The Centimeter (cm) is ideal for smaller measurements like the width of a smartphone (7-10 cm), the height of a coffee mug (10-12 cm), or the length of a pencil (15-20 cm). It's also used in crafts and construction.
To convert between Nanometer (nm) and Centimeter (cm), use the following formulas:
1 Nanometer (nm) = 1.0000000000000001e-7 Centimeter (cm)
1 Centimeter (cm) = 10000000 Nanometer (nm)
1 nm = 1 * 1.0000000000000001e-7 cm = 1.0000000000000001e-7 cm
10 nm = 10 * 1.0000000000000001e-7 cm = 0.0000010000000000000002 cm
100 nm = 100 * 1.0000000000000001e-7 cm = 0.00001 cm
500 nm = 500 * 1.0000000000000001e-7 cm = 0.00005 cm
