Yoctometer to nanometer converter (ym to nm)

Conversion Formula

1 ym = 1.0E-15 nm

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 ym = 1.0E-24 meters
   1 Nanometer = 1.0E-9 meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 ym = (1.0E-24 m) / (1.0E-9 m/nm) = 1.0E-15 nm
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in ym by 1.0E-15 to get the equivalent in nm

Example Conversion

Convert 5 ym to nm:

5 ym × 1.0E-15 = 5.0E-15 nm
