Convert fermi to terameter
Please provide values below to convert fermi [F, f] to terameter [Tm], or Convert terameter to fermi.
How to Convert Fermi to Terameter
1 F, f = 1e-27 Tm
Example: convert 15 F, f to Tm:
15 F, f = 15 × 1e-27 Tm = 1.5e-26 Tm
Fermi to Terameter Conversion Table
| fermi | terameter |

Fermi
A fermi is a unit of length equal to a femtometer, which is 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The fermi is named after the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi. It was a popular unit in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The femtometer is the officially recognized SI unit, but the fermi is still used informally in nuclear and particle physics.
Terameter
A terameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^12 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "tera-" for 10^12 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1960.
Current Use
The terameter is used for measuring distances within our solar system, such as the distances of outer planets from the Sun.
