Convert a.u. of length to nautical mile (UK)
Please provide values below to convert a.u. of length [a.u., b] to nautical mile (UK) [NM (UK)], or Convert nautical mile (UK) to a.u. of length.
1 a.u., b = 2.8555e-14 NM (UK). To convert a.u. of length to nautical mile (UK), multiply the value by 2.8555e-14; to go the other way, divide by it (1 NM (UK) = 3.5020e+13 a.u., b). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 a.u., b = 2.8555e-14 NM (UK)
- 1 NM (UK) = 3.5020e+13 a.u., b
- 10 a.u., b = 2.8555e-13 NM (UK)
- 100 a.u., b = 2.8555e-12 NM (UK)
How to Convert A.u. Of Length to Nautical Mile (Uk)
1 a.u., b = 2.85550300995476e-14 NM (UK)
Example: convert 15 a.u., b to NM (UK):
15 a.u., b = 15 × 2.85550300995476e-14 NM (UK) = 4.28325451493214e-13 NM (UK)

A.u. Of Length
The atomic unit of length, also known as the Bohr radius (a₀), is approximately 5.29 x 10⁻¹¹ meters.
History/Origin
The Bohr radius is named after Niels Bohr, who proposed a model of the atom in 1913 where the electron orbits the nucleus at specific distances. The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state.
Current Use
The atomic unit of length is used in atomic physics to simplify calculations and equations.
Nautical Mile (Uk)
The UK nautical mile, or Admiralty mile, was defined as 6,080 feet.
History/Origin
The British Admiralty defined its nautical mile as a thousandth of an imperial nautical mile. The UK adopted the international nautical mile of 1,852 meters in 1970.
Current Use
The UK nautical mile is an obsolete unit.
