meter to petameter
Please provide values below to convert meter [m] to petameter [Pm], or change ↔.
meter [m]
Definition: The meter is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the distance traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Historyandorigin: The meter was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along a meridian. It was redefined several times, most recently in 1983 using the speed of light.
CurrentUse: The meter is widely used in scientific and everyday contexts around the world.
funfact: The word 'meter' comes from the Greek word 'metron,' meaning 'measure.'
petameter [Pm]
Definition: A petameter is a unit of length equal to 1 quadrillion meters.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 20th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in theoretical physics and cosmology to describe extremely large distances.
funfact: The prefix 'peta-' comes from the Greek word 'pente,' meaning 'five,' as it represents (10^{15}).

How to Convert meter to petameter
1 meter [m] = 1.E-15 petameter [Pm]
1 petameter [Pm] = 1000000000000000 meter [m]
we use cross multiplication method
meter [m] → petameter [Pm]
1 → 1.E-15
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-15=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-15
