  2. Milliradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milliradian

    If using the metric unit meters for distance and the imperial unit inches for target size, one has to multiply by a factor of 25.4, since one inch is defined as 25.4 millimeters. distance in meters = target in inches angle in mrad × 25.4 {\displaystyle {\text{distance in meters}}={\frac {\text{target in inches}}{\text{angle in mrad}}}\times 25.4}

  3. Gauge (firearms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(firearms)

    A 12-gauge shotgun, nominally 18.5 mm (0.73 in), can range from a tight 18 mm (0.71 in) to an extreme overbore of 20 mm (0.79 in). Some also claim an increased velocity with the overbored barrels, up to 15 m/s (49 ft/s), which is due to the larger swept volume of the overbored barrel.

  4. Ring size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_size

    Originally in 1945, the divisions were based on the ring inside diameter in steps of 1 ⁄ 64 inch (0.40 mm). [6] However, in 1987 BSI updated the standard to the metric system so that one alphabetical size division equals 1.25 mm of circumferential length. For a baseline, ring size C has a circumference of 40 mm. [7]

    The VPAM scale as of 2009 runs from 1 to 14, with 1-5 being soft armor, and 6-14 being hard armor. [1] Tested armor must withstand three hits, spaced 120 mm (4.7 inches) apart, of the designated test threat with no more than 25 mm (0.98 inches) of back-face deformation in order to pass.

  6. 20 mm caliber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20_mm_caliber

    20 mm caliber is a specific size of popular autocannon ammunition. The dividing line between smaller-caliber weapons, commonly called " guns ", from larger-caliber " cannons " (e.g. machine gun vs. autocannon ), is conventionally taken to be the 20 mm round, the smallest caliber of autocannon.

  8. Radian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian

    One radian is defined as the angle at the center of a circle in a plane that subtends an arc whose length equals the radius of the circle. [6] More generally, the magnitude in radians of a subtended angle is equal to the ratio of the arc length to the radius of the circle; that is, =, where θ is the magnitude in radians of the subtended angle, s is arc length, and r is radius.

  9. Bra size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bra_size

    An underwire size 30 width has a curvature diameter of 3 + 5 ⁄ 6 inches (9.7 cm) and this diameter increases by 1 ⁄ 3 inch (0.85 cm) by size. [101] The table below shows volume calculations for some cups that can be found in a ready-to-wear large size shop.
