light year to nanometer
Please provide values below to convert light year [ly] to nanometer [nm], or change ↔.
light year [ly]
Definition: A light year is the distance that light travels in one year in a vacuum, approximately 9.461 trillion kilometers.
Historyandorigin: The concept of the light year was introduced in the early 20th century to describe astronomical distances.
CurrentUse: It is used in astronomy to measure the vast distances between stars and galaxies.
funfact: A light year is not a measure of time but of distance.
nanometer [nm]
Definition: A nanometer is a unit of length equal to one-billionth of a meter.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 18th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in nanotechnology and atomic-scale measurements.
funfact: The prefix 'nano-' comes from the Greek word 'nanos,' meaning 'dwarf.'

How to Convert light year to nanometer
1 light year [ly] = 9.460730472E+24 nanometer [nm]
1 nanometer [nm] = 1.057000834E-25 light year [ly]
we use cross multiplication method
light year [ly] → nanometer [nm]
1 → 9.460730472E+24
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*9.460730472E+24=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.41910957E+25
