To convert Bohr radii to fathoms, multiply the value by 2.89358 × 10⁻¹¹. To go the other way, multiply fathoms by 34,559,300,000 to get Bohr radii.
| Bohr Radii (a₀) | Fathoms (ftm) |
|---|---|
| 1 a₀ | 2.89358 × 10⁻¹¹ ftm |
| 2 a₀ | 5.78715 × 10⁻¹¹ ftm |
| 5 a₀ | 1.44679 × 10⁻¹⁰ ftm |
| 10 a₀ | 2.89358 × 10⁻¹⁰ ftm |
| 20 a₀ | 5.78715 × 10⁻¹⁰ ftm |
| 50 a₀ | 1.44679 × 10⁻⁹ ftm |
| 100 a₀ | 2.89358 × 10⁻⁹ ftm |
| 500 a₀ | 1.44679 × 10⁻⁸ ftm |
| 1,000 a₀ | 2.89358 × 10⁻⁸ ftm |
Bohr radius (a₀). The Bohr radius is about 5.29177 × 10⁻¹¹ m, the most probable distance between the nucleus and the electron in a hydrogen atom.
Fathom (ftm). A fathom is 6 feet (1.8288 m), traditionally used to measure the depth of water.
There are 2.89358 × 10⁻¹¹ fathoms in one Bohr radius.
Multiply the number of Bohr radii by 2.89358 × 10⁻¹¹. For example, 10 Bohr radii equal 2.89358 × 10⁻¹⁰ fathoms.
One fathom equals 34,559,300,000 Bohr radii.
