Micrometers (µm) measure cells (human cell = ~10–30 µm), bacteria (1–5 µm), and microelectronics. Pollen grains are ~15–100 µm wide. Nanometers (nm) are critical in nanotechnology, biology (DNA helix = 2 nm wide), and computing (transistors are 3–5 nm). A human hair is ~80,000 nm thick.
To convert between Micrometer (µm) and Nanometer (nm), use the following formulas:
1 Micrometer (µm) = 999.9999999999999 Nanometer (nm)
1 Nanometer (nm) = 0.001 Micrometer (µm)
1 µm = 1 * 999.9999999999999 nm = 999.9999999999999 nm
10 µm = 10 * 999.9999999999999 nm = 9999.999999999998 nm
50 µm = 50 * 999.9999999999999 nm = 49999.99999999999 nm
100 µm = 100 * 999.9999999999999 nm = 99999.99999999999 nm
500 µm = 500 * 999.9999999999999 nm = 499999.99999999994 nm
