What are Barn and Acre

Definition of Barn

A barn is a unit of area measurement used primarily in nuclear physics to quantify the scattering or absorption cross-section of very small particles, such as atomic nuclei. One barn is equivalent to an area of 10^-28 square meters. The term 'barn' was coined humorously, as in 'as big as a barn', indicating a large size of an area for the interaction of small particles.

Definition of Acre

An acre is a unit of area commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is traditionally defined as the area of one chain by one furlong (66 by 660 feet), which is exactly equal to 1/640 of a square mile, about 40% of a hectare, or 4,840 square yards. The acre is commonly used for measuring tracts of land.
