Unit Conversion Factors

Length

1 m = 100 cm = 1000 mm = 109 nm

1 km = 1000 m = 0.6214 mi

1 m = 3.281 ft = 39.37 in.

1 cm = 0.3937 in.

1 in. = 2.540 cm

1 ft = 30.48 cm

1 yd = 91.44 cm

1 mi = 5280 ft = 1.609 km

1 Å = 10-10 m = 10-8 cm = 10-1 nm

1 nautical mile = 6080 ft

1 light@year = 9.461 * 1015 m

Area

1 cm2 = 0.155 in.2

1 m2 = 104 cm2 = 10.76 ft2

1 in.2 = 6.452 cm2

1 ft2 = 144 in.2 = 0.0929 m2

Volume

1 liter = 1000 cm3 = 10-3 m3 = 0.03531 ft3 = 61.02 in.3

1 ft3 = 0.02832 m3 = 28.32 liters = 7.477 gallons

1 gallon = 3.788 liters

Time

1 min = 60 s

1 h = 3600 s

1 d = 86,400 s

1 y = 365.24 d = 3.156 * 107 s

Angle

1 rad = 57.30       = 180    >p
