A square foot is a unit of area used in the imperial and U.S. customary measurement systems. It is defined as the area of a square with sides each one foot long. One square foot is equal to 144 square inches, 0.093 square meters, or 929.0304 square centimeters. This measurement is commonly used in real estate, architecture, and interior space planning.
Definition of BarnA barn is a non-SI unit of area commonly 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 1e-28 square meters, or 100 square femtometers. It is used because of its convenience when dealing with the extremely small areas encountered in these types of measurements.
| Square Foot (ft²) | Barn (b) |
|---|---|
| 1 ft² | 9.290304e+33 b |
| 10 ft² | 9.290304e+34 b |
| 100 ft² | 9.290304e+35 b |
| 1000 ft² | 9.290304e+36 b |
| 10000 ft² | 9.290304e+37 b |
| 100000 ft² | 9.290304e+38 b |
| 1000000 ft² | 9.290304e+39 b |
| 10000000 ft² | 9.290304e+40 b |
| 100000000 ft² | 9.290304e+41 b |
| 1000000000 ft² | 9.290304e+42 b |
1 ft² = 9.290304 × 10²⁶ b
Example 1:
Convert 1 ft² to b:
1 ft² = 9.290304 × 10²⁶ b
Example 2:
Convert 5 ft² to b:
5 ft² = 5 × 9.290304 × 10²⁶ b = 4.645152 × 10²⁷ b
The concept of converting square foot to barns is a relatively modern one, emerging as a need in fields such as nuclear physics where the barn unit is more applicable. The need for such a conversion highlights the diverse and evolving nature of measurement units depending on the context of their application.
Explore real-world scenarios where converting square footage to the atomic realm of barns is not just scientific, but essential.
Example 1:
Convert 2 ft² to b:
2 ft² = 2 × 9.290304 × 10²⁶ b = 1.858061 × 10²⁷ b
Example 2:
Convert 10 ft² to b:
10 ft² = 10 × 9.290304 × 10²⁶ b = 9.290304 × 10²⁷ b
