Foot

A foot (plural: feet) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and some other countries. One foot equals 12 inches or about 0.3048 meters. Feet are often used to measure height, room dimensions, and short distances. For example, a person might be 5 feet 8 inches tall. The abbreviation for foot is "ft". Although many countries use the metric system, feet remain popular in daily life and construction in countries using the imperial system.

Femtometer

A femtometer (fm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-quadrillionth of a meter (1 fm = 10⁻¹⁵ meters). It is also known as a fermi, named after the physicist Enrico Fermi. Femtometers are used to measure extremely small distances at the subatomic level, such as the size of protons, neutrons, and atomic nuclei. For example, the radius of a proton is about 0.84 femtometers. This unit is commonly used in nuclear physics and particle physics, but it's far too small for everyday measurements.
