Convert 25 Angstrom to Fathom: 25 Angstrom in Fathom
This calculator allows you to convert from Angstrom to Fathom and in a reverse direction. To convert from Angstrom to Fathom, enter the amount of Angstrom into the first input and to convert from Fathom to Angstrom, enter the amount of Fathom into the second input.
Every 1 Angstrom = 5.4680664916885E-11 Fathom
and so, 25 Angstrom = 25 multiplied by 5.4680664916885E-11 = 1.3670166229221E-9 Fathom.
Angstrom
What is angstrom?
Angstrom, named after the Swedish physicist Anders Jonas Angstrom, is a vert tiny length unit. It equals 10−10 meter.
Angstrom is not considered as a part of the SI system of units but it is defined in the metric system.
Now, let's mention some applications of Angstrom:
measurement of wavelengths of light.
express sizes of atoms, molecules and microscopic biological structures
dimensions of integrated circuit parts.
Fathom
What is fathom?
As we mentioned before, the human body was the base from which length units were derived. Fathom is one of these units. For a large man holding his arms fully extended, the distance from the middle fingertip of one hand to the middle fingertip of the other hand express one fathom.
For more specification, one fathom equals 6 feet or nearly 1.83 meter. The term "fathom" was derived from the old English "faedm" which means outstretched arms. Fathom is used mainly in water depth measurement.
