Rod
A rod, also known as a perch or pole, is a unit of length equal to 16.5 feet, or 5.5 yards.
History/Origin
The rod has been used as a unit of measurement in England since at least the 13th century. It was a convenient length for measuring land.
Current Use
The rod is now an archaic unit of measurement, though it may still be encountered in old land deeds.
Sun's Radius
The Sun's radius is the distance from the center of the Sun to its surface, approximately 695,700 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size of the Sun has been measured with increasing accuracy over centuries of astronomical observation.
Current Use
The Sun's radius is a fundamental property of the Sun and is used in astrophysics to model its structure and evolution.
