Fermi

A fermi is a unit of length used in nuclear physics to measure extremely small distances, such as the size of atomic nuclei. It is equal to 1 femtometer (fm), which is 10⁻¹⁵ meters.

The unit is named after the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi, known for his work in nuclear physics.

Key facts:

1 fermi = 1 femtometer = 10⁻¹⁵ meters
Used to measure nuclear dimensions and particle sizes
Essential in the study of nuclear and particle physics

The fermi is vital for describing distances at the subatomic scale, much smaller than atoms and molecules.

Fathom (US Survey)

The fathom (US survey) is a unit of length used in U.S. surveying and nautical contexts, defined as exactly 6 US survey feet. Since one US survey foot is approximately 0.3048006096 meters, the US survey fathom measures about 1.828804 meters.

Like the international fathom, it is primarily used to measure water depths and underwater distances in marine navigation and surveying.

Key details:

1 US survey fathom = 6 US survey feet
1 US survey fathom ≈ 1.828804 meters
1 fathom = 2 yards

Though the difference between the US survey fathom and the international fathom is very small, the US survey units are being phased out in favor of international standards, but they still appear in some legal and historical surveying documents.
