Yard to Electron Radius (Classical) Conversion Table
| yard | Electron radius (classical) |

Yard
A yard is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement, equal to 3 feet or 36 inches.
History/Origin
The origin of the yard is uncertain, but it is believed to have been derived from the length of a man's belt or girdle. The yard was standardized as part of the English (and later British Imperial) system of units.
Current Use
The yard is commonly used for measuring land, in some sports like American football and golf, and for selling fabric.
Electron Radius (Classical)
The classical electron radius is a quantity with the dimension of length, approximately 2.82 x 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The classical electron radius is a concept from classical physics that attempts to model the electron as a spherical shell of charge. It is not considered the actual size of an electron.
Current Use
The classical electron radius appears in the Thomson scattering cross-section and is a useful length scale in atomic and high-energy physics.
