How to Convert Electron Radius (Classical) to Rod

1 r_e = 5.60315820846258e-16 rd

Example: convert 15 r_e to rd:
15 r_e = 15 × 5.60315820846258e-16 rd = 8.40473731269387e-15 rd

Electron radius (classical) rod

Electron Radius (Classical)

The classical electron radius is a quantity with the dimension of length, approximately 2.82 x 10⁻¹⁵ meters.

History/Origin

The classical electron radius is a concept from classical physics that attempts to model the electron as a spherical shell of charge. It is not considered the actual size of an electron.

Current Use

The classical electron radius appears in the Thomson scattering cross-section and is a useful length scale in atomic and high-energy physics.


Rod

A rod, also known as a perch or pole, is a unit of length equal to 16.5 feet, or 5.5 yards.

History/Origin

The rod has been used as a unit of measurement in England since at least the 13th century. It was a convenient length for measuring land.

Current Use

The rod is now an archaic unit of measurement, though it may still be encountered in old land deeds.
