What is the classical electron radius?

It is a derived length scale defined by classical physics representing the scale where the electrostatic self-energy equals the electron rest energy, used in various electromagnetic scattering calculations.

What does one dekameter represent?

A dekameter is an SI-derived unit equal to 10 meters, typically used to express distances on the order of tens of meters.
