Convert attometer to astronomical unit
Please provide values below to convert attometer [am] to astronomical unit [AU, UA], or Convert astronomical unit to attometer.
1 am = 6.6846e-30 AU, UA. To convert attometer to astronomical unit, multiply the value by 6.6846e-30; to go the other way, divide by it (1 AU, UA = 1.4960e+29 am). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 am = 6.6846e-30 AU, UA
- 1 AU, UA = 1.4960e+29 am
- 10 am = 6.6846e-29 AU, UA
- 100 am = 6.6846e-28 AU, UA
How to Convert Attometer to Astronomical Unit
1 am = 6.68458712226845e-30 AU, UA
Example: convert 15 am to AU, UA:
15 am = 15 × 6.68458712226845e-30 AU, UA = 1.00268806834027e-28 AU, UA

Attometer
An attometer is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^-18 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "atto-" for 10^-18 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1964.
Current Use
The attometer is used in high-energy physics to describe the scales relevant to quarks and leptons.
Astronomical Unit
The astronomical unit is a unit of length, now defined as exactly 149,597,870,700 meters. It is approximately the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.
History/Origin
Historically, the astronomical unit was the mean Earth-Sun distance. In 2012, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) redefined it as a fixed constant.
Current Use
The astronomical unit is used primarily for measuring distances within the Solar System or around other stars.
Frequently Asked Questions
