What is a fraction of a mm called?
A nanometer is one billionth (1 x 10^-9) of a meter, or one millionth of a millimeter. It takes 25,400,000 nanometers to equal one inch.

What is 1 nanometer called?
The nanometre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: nm) or nanometer (American spelling) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth (short scale) of a metre (0.000000001 m).
How many zeros are in a nanometer?
nine zeros
A nanometer (nm) is equal to one-billionth of a meter. Written out, one nanometer looks like 0.000000001 m (that’s nine zeros!).
What fraction of a meter is 1 nanometer?
one-billionth
A nanometer (nm) is equal to one-billionth of a meter.
How much larger is a millimeter than a nanometer?
Therefore, a nanometer is 10,000 times smaller than a centimeter. Is a nanometer bigger than a millimeter? No. A nanometer is 1,000,000 times smaller than a millimeter.
Is a nanometer smaller than a millimeter?
A nanometer is 1,000,000 times smaller than a millimeter. One millimeter (mm) is one million nanometers. How many atoms are in a nanometer? The diameter of atoms can range from 0.1 to 0.5 nanometers, so there are about 2-10 atoms in a nanometer.
How thin is a nanometer?
Just how small is “nano?” In the International System of Units, the prefix “nano” means one-billionth, or 10-9; therefore one nanometer is one-billionth of a meter. It’s difficult to imagine just how small that is, so here are some examples: A sheet of paper is about 100,000 nanometers thick.
