Link
A link, specifically Gunter's link, is a unit of length equal to 7.92 inches, or 1/100 of a chain.
History/Origin
The link is part of Gunter's chain, a surveying tool invented by Edmund Gunter in the 17th century.
Current Use
The link is an obsolete unit of measurement, but may be found in old land surveys.
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.
