The term 'barn' is a unit of area used in physics to quantify the cross-sectional area of nuclear reactions. Essentially, it represents a very small area of 10^-28 square meters. Although not a conventional unit for everyday measurements, it's extensively used in fields like nuclear physics to simplify the expression of cross sections that are typically very small and challenging to present in more common units.
Definition of RoodA 'rood' is an old English unit of area, primarily used in land measurement. Originally, it referred to the amount of land that could be ploughed by one ox in a morning. Presently, a rood is standardized to equal a quarter of an acre, or 1,011.7141056 square meters. While it's largely obsolete in modern usage, it is still sometimes used in old legal documents and historical contexts.
| Barn (b) | Rood (ro) |
|---|---|
| 1 b | 2.47105e-10 ro |
| 10 b | 2.47105e-9 ro |
| 100 b | 2.47105e-8 ro |
| 1,000 b | 2.47105e-7 ro |
| 10,000 b | 2.47105e-6 ro |
| 100,000 b | 2.47105e-5 ro |
| 1,000,000 b | 2.47105e-4 ro |
| 10,000,000 b | 2.47105e-3 ro |
| 100,000,000 b | 2.47105e-2 ro |
| 1,000,000,000 b | 2.47105e-1 ro |
1 b = 2.47105e-10 ro
1 ro = 4.04686e+9 b
Example 1:
Convert 5 b to ro:
5 b = 5 × 2.47105e-10 ro = 1.235525e-9 ro
Example 2:
Convert 50 b to ro:
50 b = 50 × 2.47105e-10 ro = 1.235525e-8 ro
A brief history of land measurement reveals the barn as a unit introduced during the Manhattan Project for nuclear cross-section areas, while the rood, with medieval origins, measured English land plots. The Barn to Rood Converter bridges these diverse units, reflecting the evolution of area measurement.
