  2. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    The Charrière is measured by the ''outer'' diameter, and is defined as 1 Fr = 1/3 mm, and thus 1 mm = 3 Fr; therefore the diameter of a round catheter in millimetres can be determined by dividing the French size by 3. [2] The French units roughly correspond to the outer circumference of the catheter (see table below).

    Thus thousands of men under this height were denied the opportunity to fight in the war. As a result of pressure to allow them entry, special "Bantam Battalions" were created composed of men who were 4 feet 10 inches (147 cm) to 5 feet 3 inches (160 cm). By the end of the war there were 29 Bantam Battalions of about 1,000 men each.

  4. Actinoid contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinoid_contraction

    It is more pronounced than the lanthanoid contraction because the 5f electrons are less effective at shielding than 4f electrons. [1] It is caused by the poor shielding effect of nuclear charge by the 5f electrons along with the expected periodic trend of increasing electronegativity and nuclear charge on moving from left to right.

  5. Human penis size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_penis_size

    A 1996 study of flaccid length found a mean of 8.8 cm (3.5 in) when measured by staff. [3] Flaccid penis length can sometimes be a poor predictor of erect length. An adult penis that is abnormally small but otherwise normally formed is referred to in medicine as a micropenis, with the cutoff usually being defined as around 3 inches (7.6 cm).

  6. Human vaginal size - Wikipedia

    Mean width: at the proximal vagina: 3.3 cm (1.3 in); at the pelvic diaphragm: 2.7 cm (1.1 in); at the introitus: 2.6 cm (1.0 in) A 2006 U.S. study of vagina sizes using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) on 28 volunteers between 18 and 39 years old, with heights ranging from 1.5 to 1.7 metres (4 ft 11 in to 5 ft 7 in), and weights between 49.9 ...

  7. 5 ft 3 in gauge railways - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_ft_3_in_gauge_railways

    The Railway Regulation (Gauge) Act 1846 was passed to formalise the gauge used on the island of Ireland to 5 feet 3 inches (1600mm). [3][2] As of 2013. [update] the network totals over 2,730 km or 1,696 mi, 2,400 km or 1,491 mi in the Republic of Ireland [17] and 330 km or 205 mi in Northern Ireland. Switzerland.

  8. Shoe size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoe_size

    The last is typically longer than the foot heel to toe length by 4 ⁄ 3 cm (13.33 mm) to 5 ⁄ 3 cm (16.67 mm), or 2 to 2 + 1 ⁄ 2 Paris points, so to determine the shoe size based on actual foot length one must add 2 Paris points. Because a Paris point is 2 ⁄ 3 of a centimetre, a centimetre is 3 ⁄ 2 Paris points, and the formula is as ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeBlond_radial_engines

    This engine was the last of the so-called 'greasers'. Production of the 5F continued under Ken-Royce Engines [5] as the Ken-Royce 5G. [3] LeBlond 85-5DF Introduced in 1930, [3] the 85-5F was an 85 hp (63 kw) 5-cylinder, air-cooled, radial piston engine with a displacement of 266 cubic inches (4.4 litres) [6] LeBlond 90-5F
