What are Nanometer and Centimeter

Definition of Nanometer

A nanometer is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one billionth of a meter (1 nm = 10^-9 m). It is commonly used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology to measure microscopic structures like atoms and molecules. The nanometer scale is crucial for nanotechnology where precision and small-scale measurements are pivotal.

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one hundredth of a meter (1 cm = 0.01 m). It is a common unit of measurement for everyday objects and is widely used in various fields such as construction, manufacturing, and geography. The centimeter offers a convenient scale for measurements that are too small for meters yet too large for millimeters.
