nm to m Converter - Nanometer to Meter

Nanometer (nm) to Meter (m)

Direct answer

1 nm = 1e-9 m

m = nm × 1e-9

Converter

Input

Result

1e-9m

m = nm × 1e-9

nm = m × 1,000,000,000

Example: 10 nm = 10 × 1e-9 = 1e-8 m.

Express both nm and m in the same base unit m (meter), then cancel the shared base unit.

1
Rewrite nm in the base unit
$1 nm = 1 \times 1 0^{- 9} m$
2
Rewrite m in the base unit
$1 m = 1 m$
3
Forward conversion
$1 nm = \frac{1 \times 1 0 ^{- 9} m}{1 m} \times 1 m = \frac{1 \times 1 0 ^{- 9}}{1} m = 1 \times 1 0^{- 9} m$
4
Reverse conversion
$1 m = \frac{1 m}{1 \times 1 0 ^{- 9} m} \times 1 nm = \frac{1}{1 \times 1 0 ^{- 9}} nm = 1, 000, 000, 000 nm$

1 nm = 1e-9 m.

10 nm = 1e-8 m.

100 nm = 1e-7 m.

Use m = nm × 1e-9.

1 m = 1,000,000,000 nm.

Use the conversion factor and round the result to the precision required by your calculation.
