What is angstrom? Definition. An
0:02
angstrom symbol. Why is a unit of length
0:05
equal to 110 m? Explanation. The
0:08
angstrom is used to measure extremely
0:11
small distances such as atomic sizes,
0:14
wavelengths of light, and dimensions in
0:18
One angstrom is 1/10enth of a nanometer,
0:22
making it ideal for work at the atomic
0:24
and molecular scale. Imagine if a meter
0:27
is the size of the earth, then an
0:29
angstrom would be like a tiny grain of
0:32
sand on its surface. That's how small it
0:34
is. In simple terms, an angstrom is a
0:37
unit used to measure things so tiny that
0:40
they're invisible to the naked eye, like
0:42
atoms and light waves.
