Nautical League

A nautical league is a unit of distance once used at sea, mainly by sailors and navigators. It equals 3 nautical miles, which is about 5.56 kilometers or 3.45 miles. Nautical leagues were used to measure longer distances during voyages before modern navigation tools became common. While the nautical mile is still widely used today in maritime and aviation navigation, the nautical league is mostly obsolete and rarely used.

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.
