What is a statute mile?

A statute mile is a unit of length equal to 5,280 feet or exactly 1,609.344 meters, commonly used for road distances.

What does atomic unit of length represent?

The atomic unit of length corresponds to the Bohr radius, representing the typical distance between an electron and proton in a hydrogen atom.

Why convert miles to atomic units?

Converting miles to atomic units helps express everyday distances in terms used in atomic and molecular physics or quantum chemistry.
