Caliber
Caliber is a unit of length used to describe the internal diameter of a firearm barrel, typically expressed in hundredths or thousandths of an inch.
History/Origin
The term "caliber" has been used for centuries to describe the size of cannons and firearms.
Current Use
Caliber is the standard unit for designating the bore of firearms in many countries, including the United States.
A.u. Of Length
The atomic unit of length, also known as the Bohr radius (a₀), is 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 where the electron orbits the nucleus at specific distances. The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state.
Current Use
The atomic unit of length is used in atomic physics to simplify calculations and equations.
