Discover the simplicity of converting Are to Barn with our intuitive online tool, designed by Newtum to satisfy your conversion needs.
An Are is a unit of area equal to 100 square meters. It was historically used in land measurement and is still in use in some regions today. The term 'Are' originates from the Latin word 'area' meaning a vacant piece of level ground.
Definition of BarnA Barn is a non-SI unit of area used in nuclear physics to quantify the scattering or absorption cross-section. One barn is equivalent to 10^-28 square meters. It serves as a measure of how likely atomic nuclei are to interact with incoming particles.
| Are (a) | Barn (b) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 a | 1e+24 b |
| 0.1 a | 1e+25 b |
| 1 a | 1e+26 b |
| 2 a | 2e+26 b |
| 3 a | 3e+26 b |
| 4 a | 4e+26 b |
| 5 a | 5e+26 b |
| 10 a | 1e+27 b |
| 20 a | 2e+27 b |
| 50 a | 5e+27 b |
1 a = 1e+26 b
1 b = 1e-26 a
Example 1:
Convert 2 a to b:
2 a = 2 × 1e+26 b = 2e+26 b
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 a to b:
0.5 a = 0.5 × 1e+26 b = 5e+25 b
The concept of the Are to Barn conversion emerged from the need to link classical land area measurements to the extremely small nuclear cross-section units used in physics. This juxtaposition of scales highlights the vast range of area units that have practical applications in various fields.
Explore the practical applications of converting Are to Barn and understand the significance of this tool in real-world scenarios.
Example 1: To convert 3 Ares to Barns:
3 a = 3 × 1e+26 b = 3e+26 b
Example 2: To convert 0.2 Ares to Barns:
0.2 a = 0.2 × 1e+26 b = 2e+25 b
