Maximum diameter of Thiomargarita namibiensis, the second largest bacterium ever discovered 10 −3: 1 millimeter ~5 mm Length of an average flea is 1–10 mm (usually <5 mm) [27] 2.54 mm One-tenth inch; distance between pins in DIP (dual-inline-package) electronic components 5.70 mm Diameter of the projectile in 5.56×45mm NATO ammunition 10 −2
The 6.5mm Creedmoor (6.5×48mm), [6] designated 6.5 Creedmoor by SAAMI, 6,5 Creedmoor by the C.I.P. [4] is a centerfire rifle cartridge introduced by Hornady in 2007. [7]It was developed by Hornady senior ballistics scientist Dave Emary in partnership with Dennis DeMille, the vice-president of product development at Creedmoor Sports, hence the name.
The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter is π (pi), an irrational constant approximately equal to 3.141592654. The ratio of a circle's circumference to its radius is 2 π . [ a ] Thus the circumference C is related to the radius r and diameter d by: C = 2 π r = π d . {\displaystyle C=2\pi r=\pi d.}
Let A′ be the point opposite A on the circle, so that A′A is a diameter, and A′AB is an inscribed triangle on a diameter. By Thales' theorem , this is a right triangle with right angle at B. Let the length of A′B be c n , which we call the complement of s n ; thus c n 2 + s n 2 = (2 r ) 2 .
The 6.5-284 has been used extensively in benchrest competitions and is known as an extremely accurate long range round. Using an improved version of the 6.5-284, Rich DeSimone set a 1,000-yard (914.4 m) world record with a 1.564-inch (39.73 mm) group. [4]
The 7.62 mm designation refers to the internal diameter of the barrel at the lands (the raised helical ridges in rifled gun barrels). The actual bullet caliber is often 7.82 mm (0.308 in), although Soviet weapons commonly use a 7.91 mm (0.311 in) bullet, as do older British ( .303 British ) and Japanese ( 7.7×58mm Arisaka ) cartridges.
The magnitude of such precision (152 decimal places) can be put into context by the fact that the circumference of the largest known object, the observable universe, can be calculated from its diameter (93 billion light-years) to a precision of less than one Planck length (at 1.6162 × 10 −35 meters, the shortest unit of length expected to be ...
