Nautical League (Int.)
The international nautical league is a unit of length equal to three international nautical miles.
History/Origin
The international nautical league is based on the international nautical mile, which was defined as exactly 1,852 meters by international agreement in 1929.
Current Use
The nautical league is not a commonly used unit, with distances at sea typically being expressed in nautical miles.
Nanometer
A nanometer is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth of a meter.
History/Origin
The term “nanometer” gained prominence in the late 20th century with the advent of nanotechnology and the development of microscopes capable of observing objects at that scale.
Current Use
The nanometer is commonly used to express dimensions on an atomic and molecular scale. It is used to specify the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation near the visible part of the spectrum and in the field of nanotechnology.
