How to convert atomic units of length to nautical miles
1 a.u. of length is equal to 2.857328353 × 10⁻¹⁴ nautical miles, and 1 nautical mile (international) is equal to 34,997,727,830,000 atomic units of length. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
nautical miles = atomic units of length × 2.857328353 × 10⁻¹⁴
nautical miles = atomic units of length ÷ 34,997,727,830,000Example: convert 1 a₀ to NM: 1 × 2.857328353 × 10⁻¹⁴ = 2.857328353 × 10⁻¹⁴ NM.
