Centimetre to Nanometre Converter

What is a Centimetre?

A centimetre is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one hundredth of a metre.

What is a Nanometre?

A nanometre is a unit of length equal to one billionth of a metre, used in nanotechnology.

Conversion Formula

To convert from centimetre to nanometre, use the formula:

    nanometre = centimetre × (0.01 / 1e-9)

Which simplifies to:

    1 centimetre = 1.000000e+7 nanometre

To convert from nanometre to centimetre, use:

    centimetre = nanometre × (1e-9 / 0.01)

Which simplifies to:

    1 nanometre = 1.000000e-7 centimetre

This formula works by converting Centimetre into meters as the base unit, then converting that result into Nanometre. It's a two-step, accurate method based on SI units.

\ Example: Convert 10 Centimetre to Nanometre:
10 × (0.01 ÷ 1e-9) = 1.000000e+8 nanometre
