A number of units were used to measure mass. One oke was equal to 1.248 kg, according to the metric equivalences defined in 1891. [1] [2] Some other units according to the metric equivalences defined in 1891 are given below: [1] [2] 1 kirat = 1 ⁄ 6400 oke 1 dirhem = 1 ⁄ 400 oke 1 miskal = 8 ⁄ 800 oke 1 okieh = 0.03 oke 1 rotoli = 0.36 oke ...
The setat was the basic unit of land measure and may originally have varied in size across Egypt's nomes. [20] Later, it was equal to one square khet, where a khet measured 100 cubits. The setat could be divided into strips one khet long and ten cubit wide (a kha). [2] [6] [37] During the Old Kingdom:
The Aermacchi M-346 Master is a family of military twin-engine transonic advanced jet trainers and light combat aircraft.Originally co-developed with Yakovlev as the Yak/AEM-130, the partnership was dissolved in 2000 and then Alenia Aermacchi proceeded to separately develop the M-346 Master, while Yakovlev continued work on the Yakovlev Yak-130.
Jet fuel is a mixture of a variety of hydrocarbons. Because the exact composition of jet fuel varies widely based on petroleum source, it is impossible to define jet fuel as a ratio of specific hydrocarbons. Jet fuel is therefore defined as a performance specification rather than a chemical compound. [1]
A velocity-type meter measures the velocity of flow through a meter of known internal capacity. The speed of the flow can then be converted into a volume of flow to determine the usage. There are several types of meters that measure water flow velocity, including jet meters (single-jet and multi-jet), turbine meters, propeller meters and mag ...
The HA-300 fighter was originally designed around the 8,170 lbf (36.3 kN) afterburning Bristol Siddeley Orpheus Orpheus 703-S-10 turbojet, but aside from whether the British would even release it for use by the Egyptians, President Nasser saw that being dependent on a British engine was a major threat to national security, due to the potential ...
The US Federal Aviation Administration defines a large aircraft as any aircraft with a certificated maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of more than 12,500 lb (5,700 kg) [1] The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) defines a large aircraft as either "an aeroplane with a maximum take-off mass of more than 12,566.35 pounds (5,700.00 kilograms) or a ...
10 meters – wavelength of the highest shortwave radio frequency, 30 MHz; 10.2 meters – length of the Panzer VIII Maus, the world's largest tank; 12 meters – height of the Newby-McMahon Building, the world's littlest skyscraper; 23 meters – height of Luxor Obelisk, located in the Place de la Concorde, Paris, France
