Question 1

Why do we use nanometers instead of meters?

Accepted Answer

Nanometers are used for extremely small scales, like the wavelength of light or the size of transistors, where expressing values in meters would result in cumbersome decimals.

Question 2

Is this conversion constant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, because both are units within the metric (SI) system, the relationship between nanometers and meters remains constant.
