How to Convert Bohr Radius to Planck Length
1 a.u. = 3.2740948111715e+24 l_P
Example: convert 15 a.u. to l_P:
15 a.u. = 15 × 3.2740948111715e+24 l_P = 4.91114221675726e+25 l_P
Bohr Radius to Planck Length Conversion Table
| Bohr radius | Planck length |

Bohr Radius
The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and the electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state, approximately 5.29 x 10⁻¹¹ meters.
History/Origin
The Bohr radius is named after Niels Bohr, who proposed a model of the atom in 1913. It is the atomic unit of length.
Current Use
The Bohr radius is a fundamental constant in atomic physics and is used to simplify calculations and equations.
Planck Length
The Planck length is the smallest possible unit of length in the universe, approximately 1.6 x 10⁻³⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The Planck length is derived from fundamental physical constants and is named after the physicist Max Planck. It is a fundamental unit in the system of Planck units.
Current Use
The Planck length is a theoretical concept used in quantum gravity and cosmology to describe phenomena at the smallest scales of the universe.
