Please provide values below to convert fermi [F, f] to picometer [pM], or Convert picometer to fermi.
How to Convert Fermi to Picometer
1 F, f = 0.001 pM
Example: convert 15 F, f to pM:
15 F, f = 15 × 0.001 pM = 0.015 pM
Fermi to Picometer Conversion Table

Fermi
A fermi is a unit of length equal to a femtometer, which is 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The fermi is named after the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi. It was a popular unit in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The femtometer is the officially recognized SI unit, but the fermi is still used informally in nuclear and particle physics.
Picometer
A picometer is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^-12 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "pico-" for 10^-12 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1960.
Current Use
The picometer is used to measure atomic and subatomic particle dimensions.
