Error using zeros, Size inputs must be scalar. Need help with this error in my function.

My function runs successfully at first, but once i type in a length of vector i get this error:

  This program accepts a vector of masses and calculates the energy for
  them. It displays a linear and three logarithmic plots and provides a
  table of values for mass entered and resulting energy from the row vector
  entered.

Enter your choice   1.Metric  2.US customary units : 1
Enter your choice     1.Vector  2.Scaler : 1
Enter the length of the vector : [100 200 300 400 500]

Error using zeros
Size inputs must be scalar.
Error in energy2 (line 20)

If you are inputing,

1. Enter the length of the vector : 2 (any scalar value) then it will work

m = zeros(1,length(ln))

2. Enter the length of the vector : [1 2 3 4] , then you can use:

m = zeros(1,length(ln))
