  2. List of narrow-gauge model railway scales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_narrow-gauge_model...

    The scales used include the general European modelling range of Z, N, TT, H0, 0 and also the large model engineering gauges of I to X, including 3 + 1 ⁄ 2, 5, 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 and 10 + 1 ⁄ 4-inch gauge. As 00 is a particularly British scale, it is not included within this pan-European standard. However the predominantly US imperial-based S scale ...

    This is the scale which MOROP has defined for O scale, because it is half the size of the 1:22.5 Scale G-gauge model railways made by German manufacturers. [citation needed] 1:43.5: 7.02 mm: Model railways (0) Exact O scale of 7 mm = 1 foot. 1:43: 7.088 mm: Die-cast cars: Still the most popular scale for die-cast cars worldwide, metric or ...

    In addition to these scales, the United Kingdom has, over the last forty years, fathered a scale that is based on the predominant British narrow track gauge of 2 ft (610 mm). Using 32 mm ( 1.26 in ) - 0 gauge - track, there is an extensive range of 16 mm to the foot scale [1:19] live-steam and other types of locomotives, rolling stock and ...

    G scale: various: 45 mm Originally from the German groß (meaning "big"), now also G as in Garden, G scale is generally used for garden railways of narrow-gauge prototypes, and uses the same track gauge as 1 gauge, below. The scale ranges approximately from 1 ⁄ 19 to 1 ⁄ 29, according to the size and gauge of the prototype. Gn15: various ...

    The scale of a model vehicle can be expressed as a scale ratio. A scale ratio of 1:100 means that 1 cm represents 100 cm; at this scale, if a model car is 4.5 cm long, then it represents a real car that is 4.5 m long. When it comes to figurines of humans, the preferred method of expressing scale is the height of a figurine in millimeters.

  7. Mohs scale - Wikipedia

    The Mohs scale is an ordinal scale. For example, corundum (9) is twice as hard as topaz (8), but diamond (10) is four times as hard as corundum. [ citation needed ] The table below shows the comparison with the absolute hardness measured by a sclerometer , with images of the reference minerals in the rightmost column.

    The HuffPost/YouGov poll consisted of 1,000 completed interviews conducted March 4-5 among U.S. adults, including 918 who agreed to answer questions about sexual topics. It was conducted using a sample selected from YouGov's opt-in online panel to match the demographics and other characteristics of the adult U.S. population.
