1 Powers of Ten

2 IBM written in Xenon Atoms Image from: http://mrsec.wisc.edu/Edetc/nanoquest/atom_manipulation/images/ibm.jpg 216pm or 0.000000000216m Each of the spheres forming IBM is an individual Xenon atom moved into position by an Atomic Force Microscope AtomicPicometer 10 -12 m 0.000000000001m

3 The Structure of Carbon Dioxide

4 The Structure of Oxygen

5 The Structure of a Water Molecule Scale: 10 -9 meters = 1 nm = 1 nanometer

6 The Structure of DNA Scale: 10 -9 meters = 1 nm = 1 nanometer

7 DNA within a Virus Scale: 10 -8 meters = 10 nm = 10 nanometers

8 A Virus Scale: 10 -7 meters = 0.1 µm = 0.1 micrometer = 100 nm = 100 nanometers

9 Virus on a Bacterium Scale: 10 -6 meters = 1 µm = 1 micrometer

10 Bacterium Scale: 10 -5 meters = 10 µm = 10 micrometers

11 Pollen Scale: 10 -4 meters = 100 µm = 100 micrometers

12 A Bee's Eye Scale: 10 -3 meters = 1 mm = 1 millimeter

13 A Bee's Head Scale: 10 -2 meters = 1 cm = 1 centimeter

14 A Lily and a Bee Scale: 10 -1 meters = 0.1 meter = 10 centimeters

15 The One-Meter Square Scale: 10 0 meters = 1 meter: Light takes about 3 nanoseconds to cross this picture

16 A Pond with Lily Pads Scale: 10 1 meter = 10 meters

17 Japanese Tea Garden Scale: 10 2 meters = 100 meters

18 Golden Gate Park Scale: 10 3 meters = 1 km = 1 kilometer

19 San Francisco Scale: 10 4 meters = 10 km = 10 kilometers

20 The San Francisco Bay Area Scale: 10 5 meters = 100 km = 100 kilometers

21 California Scale: 10 6 meters = 1 Mm = 1 megameter

22 North and Central America Scale: 10 7 meters = 10 Mm = 10 megameters

23 Earth Scale: 10 8 meters = 100 Mm = 100 megameters
