Converting from Cubic Nanometer (nm³) to Cubic Kilometer (km³)

What is Cubic Nanometer (nm³)

A cubic nanometer (nm³) is a unit of volume commonly used at the microscopic scale. It represents a cube with each edge measuring one nanometer (1 nm), which is one billionth of a meter. This unit is crucial in fields like nanotechnology, where the sizes of materials and structures can be in the range of nanometers.

What is Cubic Kilometer (km³)

A cubic kilometer (km³) is a much larger unit of volume, used for measuring large quantities such as the volume of lakes, clouds, and man-made structures. It represents a cube with each edge measuring one kilometer (1 km), equivalent to 1,000 meters. One cubic kilometer contains 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (10^21) cubic inches, illustrating its vast size compared to nm³.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between cubic nanometers and cubic kilometers can be expressed through the following formulas:

To convert from cubic nanometers to cubic kilometers, you can multiply the number of cubic nanometers by 1×10−27. Conversely, to convert from cubic kilometers to cubic nanometers, multiply the number of cubic kilometers by 1×1030.

Examples

Here are some example conversions to illustrate the process:

1. Convert 10 nm³ to km³:

10nm3=10×1×10−27km3=1×10−26km3

2. Convert 16 nm³ to km³:

16nm3=16×1×10−27km3=1.6×10−26km3

3. Convert 5 km³ to nm³:

5km3=5×1×1030nm3=5×1030nm3

4. Convert 1 km³ to nm³:

1km3=1×1×1030nm3=1×1030nm3

5. Convert 16 km³ to nm³:

16km3=16×1×1030nm3=1.6×1031nm3
