What is Meter?
The meter (symbol: m) is the fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI).
Originally intended to be one ten-millionth of the distance from the Earth’s equator to the North Pole, it is currently defined by the speed of light in a vacuum. A meter is officially defined as the length of the path traveled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Common Uses
The meter is the standard unit of measurement used globally in almost all fields, except in a few countries that still predominantly use Imperial units (like the United States). It’s used for everything from human height and room dimensions to racing distances and geographical features.
What is Nanometer?
The nanometer (symbol: nm) is an SI unit of length equal to $10^{-9}$ meters.
Common Uses
Nanometers are the standard unit for measuring wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation (including visible light) and for describing the feature sizes of advanced semiconductor chips and nanotechnology.
How many nanometer are in a meter?
There are 1000000000 nanometer in 1 meter.
