A barn is a unit of area measurement used in nuclear physics to quantify the scattering or absorption cross-section of very small particles, such as atomic nuclei. One barn is equal to 10^-28 square meters. The term 'barn' is whimsically derived from the phrase 'as big as a barn,' indicating a large target area for particle collisions.
Definition of Square PoleA square pole, also known as a square rod, is an imperial unit of area. It is often used in real estate and land measurement. One square pole is equivalent to a square-shaped area with each side measuring one pole in length. For reference, a pole is defined as 16.5 feet, making a square pole equal to 272.25 square feet.
| Barn (b) | Square Pole (sq pole) |
|---|---|
| 1 b | 2.47e-31 sq pole |
| 10 b | 2.47e-30 sq pole |
| 100 b | 2.47e-29 sq pole |
| 1,000 b | 2.47e-28 sq pole |
| 10,000 b | 2.47e-27 sq pole |
| 100,000 b | 2.47e-26 sq pole |
| 1,000,000 b | 2.47e-25 sq pole |
| 10,000,000 b | 2.47e-24 sq pole |
| 100,000,000 b | 2.47e-23 sq pole |
| 1,000,000,000 b | 2.47e-22 sq pole |
1 b = 2.47e-31 sq pole
1 sq pole = 4.05e+30 b
Example 1:
Convert 5 b to sq pole:
5 b = 5 × 2.47e-31 sq pole = 1.235e-30 sq pole
Example 2:
Convert 20 b to sq pole:
20 b = 20 × 2.47e-31 sq pole = 4.94e-30 sq pole
The Barn to Square Pole Converter is a tool that reflects the evolution of measurement systems. Originally, barns emerged in the realm of nuclear physics during World War II, while square poles date back to ancient surveying practices. This tool bridges the gap between modern scientific and traditional land measuring units, encapsulating centuries of measurement history.
Discover real-world applications where the Barn to Square Pole Converter plays a pivotal role in simplifying area conversions.
Example 1:
To convert 2 barns to square poles:
2 b = 2 × 2.47e-31 sq pole = 4.94e-31 sq pole
Example 2:
To convert 50 barns to square poles:
50 b = 50 × 2.47e-31 sq pole = 1.235e-29 sq pole
