Convert Bohr radius to megameter
Enter a value below to convert Bohr radius [a.u.] to megameter [Mm]. Reverse conversion: Convert megameter to Bohr radius.
1 a.u. = 5.2918e-17 Mm. To convert Bohr radius to megameter, multiply the value by 5.2918e-17; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Mm = 1.8897e+16 a.u.). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Bohr Radius: Definition and Use
The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and the electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state, 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. It is the atomic unit of length.
Current Use
The Bohr radius is a fundamental constant in atomic physics and is used to simplify calculations and equations.
Megameter: Definition and Use
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.
