Please provide values below to convert megameter [Mm] to fermi [F, f], or Convert fermi to megameter.
How to Convert Megameter to Fermi
1 Mm = 1e+21 F, f
Example: convert 15 Mm to F, f:
15 Mm = 15 × 1e+21 F, f = 1.5e+22 F, f

Megameter
A megameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^6 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "mega-" for 10^6 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1873.
Current Use
The megameter is sometimes used to specify the diameters of planets and the distances of satellites.
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.
