Convert attonewton to nanonewton
Please provide values below to convert attonewton [aN] to nanonewton [nN], or Convert nanonewton to attonewton.
1 aN = 1e-09 nN. To convert attonewton to nanonewton, multiply the value by 1e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nN = 1000000000 aN). Both units measure force and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aN = 1e-09 nN
- 1 nN = 1000000000 aN
- 10 aN = 1e-08 nN
- 100 aN = 1e-07 nN
How to Convert Attonewton to Nanonewton
1 aN = 1e-09 nN
Example: convert 15 aN to nN:
15 aN = 15 × 1e-09 nN = 1.5e-08 nN

Attonewton
An attonewton (aN) is a unit of force equal to 10^-18 newtons.
History/Origin
The attonewton is part of the SI prefixes system, introduced to measure extremely small forces, with its usage becoming more relevant in nanotechnology and precision measurements.
Current Use
Attonewtons are used in scientific research involving microscopic forces, such as in atomic and molecular physics, and in nanotechnology applications where very small forces are measured.
Nanonewton
A nanonewton (nN) is a unit of force equal to one billionth (10^-9) of a newton.
History/Origin
The nanonewton was introduced as part of the SI system's prefix-based units to measure very small forces, especially in scientific and engineering contexts, following the adoption of the SI units and prefixes.
Current Use
Nanonewtons are used in fields such as nanotechnology, materials science, and precision instrumentation to quantify extremely small forces.
