The Nautical Mile is used for global navigation, equaling one minute of latitude (about 1.15 statute miles). Commercial airliners cruise at altitudes of 35,000-40,000 feet (about 6 nautical miles). Modern nautical charts still use this measurement, and international maritime law specifies territorial waters in nautical miles. 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 Nautical Mile (nmi) and Centimeter (cm), use the following formulas:
1 Nautical Mile (nmi) = 185200 Centimeter (cm)
1 Centimeter (cm) = 0.000005399568034557236 Nautical Mile (nmi)
1 nmi = 1 * 185200 cm = 185200 cm
5 nmi = 5 * 185200 cm = 926000 cm
10 nmi = 10 * 185200 cm = 1852000 cm
20 nmi = 20 * 185200 cm = 3704000 cm
50 nmi = 50 * 185200 cm = 9260000 cm
100 nmi = 100 * 185200 cm = 18520000 cm
