What are Kilometer and Picometer

Definition of Kilometer

A kilometer, symbolized as km, is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one thousand meters. It is a widely used measure for longer distances, especially on land. One kilometer is equivalent to 0.621371 miles.

Definition of Picometer

A picometer, or picometre, is a unit of length in the metric system, symbolized as pm, and is equal to one trillionth (1/1,000,000,000,000) of a meter. It's used to measure extremely small distances in fields such as physics and chemistry.
