Meter (m) - Definition
The meter is defined as the length of the path traveled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Meter (m) - History/origin
Originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole. Redefined in 1983 in terms of the speed of light.
Meter (m) - Current use
The meter is used worldwide for scientific, engineering, and everyday measurements.
Nanometer (nm) - Definition
Nanometer (nm) is a metric prefix submultiple of the Meter (m). 1 m = 999,999,999.9999999 nm.
Nanometer (nm) - History/origin
The prefix "nm" was adopted as part of the metric system to denote multiples and submultiples of base units.
Nanometer (nm) - Current use
It is widely used in countries that have adopted the metric system.
