How to Convert Nanometers to Angstroms
Converting nanometers (nm) to angstroms (Å) is a common conversion in wavelength measurements. One nanometer is equal to 10 angstroms.
Formula
Angstroms = Nanometers × 10
or
Å = nm × 10
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in nanometers
- Multiply that number by 10
- The result is the equivalent amount in angstroms
Examples
- 1 nm = 10 Å
- 10 nm = 100 Å
- 100 nm = 1,000 Å
Common Nanometers to Angstroms Conversions
Here is a table of common nanometer to angstrom conversions for quick reference:
| Nanometers (nm) | Angstroms (Å) | Nanometers (nm) | Angstroms (Å) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | 100 | 1,000 |
| 10 | 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 |
| 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 | 100,000 |
| 500 | 5,000 | 50,000 | 500,000 |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Nanometer (nm)?
A nanometer (nm) is a unit of length equal to one billionth of a meter (10⁻⁹ meters). It is commonly used for measuring very small distances, such as the wavelengths of visible light or the size of atoms and molecules.
What is an Angstrom (Å)?
An angstrom (Å) is a unit of length equal to one ten-billionth of a meter (10⁻¹⁰ meters). It is commonly used for measuring very small distances, such as the wavelengths of X-rays or the size of atoms and molecules.
