Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (braccio [Italy]) The Braccio is a traditional Italian measurement of length. The word means "arm", and a Braccio is approximately equal to the length of a man's arm, about 27 or 28 inches (68-71 centimeters). In modern times, the Braccio has become an informal metric unit of exactly 70 centimeters (about 27.56 inches), which is the same as the Arm Length unit. Unit Definition (fermi) The Fermi was a metric unit of distance formerly used in atomic physics. One Fermi equals 10e-15 meter, or 1 femtometer. The unit was named after Enrico Fermi (1901-1954), the Italian-American physicist who built the first nuclear reactor.
