The Rod (or pole/perch) was historically used in land surveying and agriculture. Measuring exactly 16.5 feet, rods were commonly used to define property boundaries. A standard American football field is 320 rods long (including end zones). This unit still appears in some property deeds and agricultural measurements. 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.
To convert between Rod (rd) and Nanometer (nm), use the following formulas:
1 Rod (rd) = 5029200000 Nanometer (nm)
1 Nanometer (nm) = 1.9883878151594687e-10 Rod (rd)
1 rd = 1 * 5029200000 nm = 5029200000 nm
2 rd = 2 * 5029200000 nm = 10058400000 nm
5 rd = 5 * 5029200000 nm = 25146000000 nm
10 rd = 10 * 5029200000 nm = 50292000000 nm
20 rd = 20 * 5029200000 nm = 100584000000 nm
50 rd = 50 * 5029200000 nm = 251460000000 nm
