Attometer
An attometer (am) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-quintillionth of a meter (1 am = 10⁻¹⁸ meters). This unit is extremely small, even smaller than a femtometer, and is used in theoretical physics to describe distances at the quantum level, such as within particles or in advanced models of spacetime. However, attometers are rarely used in practice because most known physical structures, including subatomic particles, are still larger than this. The attometer mainly appears in scientific equations or hypotheses dealing with concepts beyond current experimental capabilities.
Link (US Survey)
The US survey link is a unit of length used in the United States for land surveying, defined as exactly 7.92 US survey inches. Since one US survey inch is slightly longer than the international inch (due to the US survey foot), the US survey link is approximately 0.201168 meters.
It is part of the US survey system, derived from Gunter’s chain, which is divided into 100 links per chain (66 US survey feet). Links are used to measure small distances in surveying and land measurement.
Key facts:
1 US survey link = 7.92 US survey inches
1 US survey link ≈ 0.201168 meters
100 links = 1 US survey chain (66 US survey feet)
25 links = 1 US survey rod (16.5 US survey feet)
Though the US survey units are being phased out, the US survey link still appears in historical land records and legal surveying documents.
