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 Hand is the standard unit for measuring horse height worldwide. One hand equals exactly 4 inches. For example, an average riding horse stands about 15-16 hands (60-64 inches) tall at the shoulder. This measurement is taken from the ground to the horse's withers (shoulder ridge).
To convert between Nanometer (nm) and Hand (hh), use the following formulas:
1 Nanometer (nm) = 9.842519685039372e-9 Hand (hh)
1 Hand (hh) = 101599999.99999999 Nanometer (nm)
1 nm = 1 * 9.842519685039372e-9 hh = 9.842519685039372e-9 hh
10 nm = 10 * 9.842519685039372e-9 hh = 9.842519685039372e-8 hh
100 nm = 100 * 9.842519685039372e-9 hh = 9.84251968503937e-7 hh
500 nm = 500 * 9.842519685039372e-9 hh = 0.000004921259842519686 hh
