Nanometer
A nanometer is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth of a meter.
History/Origin
The term “nanometer” gained prominence in the late 20th century with the advent of nanotechnology and the development of microscopes capable of observing objects at that scale.
Current Use
The nanometer is commonly used to express dimensions on an atomic and molecular scale. It is used to specify the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation near the visible part of the spectrum and in the field of nanotechnology.
Sun's Radius
The Sun's radius is the distance from the center of the Sun to its surface, approximately 695,700 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size of the Sun has been measured with increasing accuracy over centuries of astronomical observation.
Current Use
The Sun's radius is a fundamental property of the Sun and is used in astrophysics to model its structure and evolution.
