About These Units
Angstrom (Å)
An angstrom (Å) is a unit equal to 10⁻¹⁰ meters or 0.1 nanometers. Angstroms measure atomic and molecular dimensions, crystal structures, and electromagnetic wavelengths. A hydrogen atom is about 1.2 Å in diameter. Named after physicist Anders Jonas Ångström.
Fathom (fathom)
A fathom is a nautical unit equal to 6 feet or 1.8288 meters. Fathoms traditionally measure water depth and anchor chain length. The term comes from Old English "fæðm" meaning outstretched arms. Depth soundings were historically reported in fathoms.
