How to Convert Centimeters to Nanometers

1 cm = 10000000 nm

1 nm = 1e-7 cm

Example: convert 10 cm to nm: 10 cm = 10 × 10000000 cm = 100000000 cm

Centimeters

Definition: A centimeter (cm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), defined as 1/100 meters.

History: The centimeter is derived from the SI unit meter, with the prefix "centi-" indicating one hundredth of a meter. It was introduced with the metric system during the French Revolution to create a decimal-based system for easier conversions.

Nanometers

Definition: A nanometer (nm) is a unit of length equal to one-billionth of a meter (1/1,000,000,000 m).

History: The nanometer gained prominence with advances in nanotechnology and quantum physics. It is commonly used to measure atomic and molecular structures, as well as wavelengths of light.
