What are Decimeter and Attometer

Definition of Decimeter

A decimeter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-tenth of a meter. It is often used in measurements where precision greater than a meter but less than a centimeter is required. The decimeter is a versatile unit, commonly employed in various fields such as meteorology, geology, and in everyday situations when measuring furniture or room dimensions.

Definition of Attometer

An attometer is an incredibly small unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one quintillionth of a meter (1 am = 10^-18 meters). This unit is part of the International System of Units (SI) and is used predominantly in scientific fields such as physics and chemistry to measure wavelengths, atomic-scale distances, and to quantify the size of particles much smaller than the nanoscale.

0.8 dm 8e+17 am
0.9 dm 9e+17 am
1 dm 1e+18 am

Conversion of Decimeter to Attometer

1 dm = 1e+17 am
1 am = 1e-17 dm

Example 1:
convert 2 dm to am:
2 dm = 2 × 1e+17 am = 2e+17 am

Example 2:
convert 0.5 dm to am:
0.5 dm = 0.5 × 1e+17 am = 5e+16 am
