Statute League
A statute league is a traditional unit of distance used primarily on land and defined as 3 statute miles, which equals about 4.83 kilometers or 15,840 feet. It was commonly used in English-speaking countries for measuring distances before the metric system became widespread. The statute league is different from the nautical league, which is based on nautical miles and used at sea. Although largely obsolete today, the statute league is still found in historical texts and older maps.
Classical Electron Radius
The classical electron radius is a theoretical length scale associated with the electron, derived from classical electromagnetism. It represents the size of a hypothetical sphere where the electron’s electrostatic energy equals its rest mass energy.
Its value is approximately 2.818 × 10⁻¹⁵ meters (about 2.8 femtometers).
Calculated using fundamental constants: the electron charge, mass, and the speed of light.
It is not the actual physical size of the electron (which is considered point-like in quantum mechanics), but a useful scale in classical physics.
Used in scattering theory and classical electron models.
Key facts:
Classical electron radius ≈ 2.818 × 10⁻¹⁵ m
Represents an electromagnetic length scale, not a physical size
Important in classical models of electron behavior
This radius helps bridge classical and quantum views of particle physics.
