To convert nanometers to centimeters, multiply the value by 1 × 10⁻⁷. To go the other way, multiply centimeters by 10,000,000 to get nanometers.
| Nanometers (nm) | Centimeters (cm) |
|---|---|
| 1 nm | 1 × 10⁻⁷ cm |
| 5 nm | 5 × 10⁻⁷ cm |
| 10 nm | 1 × 10⁻⁶ cm |
| 25 nm | 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ cm |
| 50 nm | 5 × 10⁻⁶ cm |
| 100 nm | 1 × 10⁻⁵ cm |
| 250 nm | 2.5 × 10⁻⁵ cm |
| 500 nm | 5 × 10⁻⁵ cm |
| 1,000 nm | 0.0001 cm |
| 2,500 nm | 0.00025 cm |
| 5,000 nm | 0.0005 cm |
| 10,000 nm | 0.001 cm |
| 100,000 nm | 0.01 cm |
| 1,000,000 nm | 0.1 cm |
Nanometer (nm). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, used for wavelengths of light and the size of molecules.
Centimeter (cm). A centimeter is one hundredth of a meter, used for everyday measurements such as height and clothing sizes.
There are 1 × 10⁻⁷ centimeters in one nanometer.
Multiply the number of nanometers by 1 × 10⁻⁷. For example, 10 nanometers equal 1 × 10⁻⁶ centimeters.
One centimeter equals 10,000,000 nanometers.
0.0001 centimeters. Other common values: 100 nanometers = 1 × 10⁻⁵ centimeters and 10,000 nanometers = 0.001 centimeters.
