This is a unit conversion problem. Nm (nanometer) is smaller than mm (millimeter).

1 mm =
1/10³m = 1 x 10⁻³ m

1 nm =
1/10⁹ m = 1 x10⁻⁹ m

1 m = 1 x 10⁹ nm

 

Hence, 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Then we can convert 2 x 10⁻³ m to nm by
multiplying with 10
⁹.

Then 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m = 2 x 10⁻³ x 10⁹ nm =
2 x 10⁶ nm.

Hence, the
thickness of nickel is 2 x 10
⁶ nm.
