About These Units
Hand (hh)
A hand (hh) is equal to 4 inches or 10.16 centimeters. Hands are still the standard unit for measuring horse height at the withers. A horse standing 15.2 hands is 15 hands plus 2 inches, or 62 inches (157.5 cm) tall.
Nanometer (nm)
A nanometer (nm) is a metric unit equal to one billionth of a meter or 0.001 micrometers. Nanometers measure visible light wavelengths (400-700 nm), DNA width (2 nm), computer chip transistors, and molecular structures. Essential in nanotechnology and semiconductor manufacturing.
