League

A league is an old unit of distance that was commonly used in the past, especially for measuring distances on land or sea. Traditionally, one league equals about 3 miles or roughly 4.8 kilometers. The exact length of a league could vary by country and time period. It was often used by sailors and travelers to describe how far they had gone. Although the league is mostly obsolete today, it still appears in literature and historical contexts.

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.
