Nanometers to Kilometers Converter (nm to km)

Nanometers

The nanometre is a unit of length equal to one billionth of a metre (10⁻⁹ m) and represents the fundamental scale of atomic and molecular structures. The diameter of a hydrogen atom is approximately 0.1 nm, a DNA double helix is about 2 nm wide, and a typical protein ranges from 1 to 100 nm. The nanometre is the primary unit in nanotechnology, materials science, and optics: the wavelength of visible light spans roughly 380–700 nm.

Kilometers

The kilometre, equal to exactly 1,000 metres, is the standard unit for measuring distances at a geographic and infrastructural scale, including road distances, flight paths, and the dimensions of countries and continents. It is derived directly from the metre by applying the SI prefix kilo- (from Greek khilioi, meaning thousand) and is universally used in science, meteorology, and everyday life in all countries that have adopted the metric system. The Earth's circumference at the equator is approximately 40,075 km, a value historically used in the original derivation of the metre itself.
