  2. Milliradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milliradian

    A common adjustment value in firearm sights is 1 cm at 100 meters which equals ⁠ 10 mm / 100 m ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 10 ⁠ mrad. The true definition of a milliradian is based on a unit circle with a radius of one and an arc divided into 1,000 mrad per radian, hence 2,000 π or approximately 6,283.185 milliradians in one turn , and rifle scope ...

    The nautical mile (nmi) was originally defined as the arc length of a minute of latitude on a spherical Earth, so the actual Earth circumference is very near 21 600 nmi. A minute of arc is ⁠π 10 800⁠ of a radian. A second of arc, arcsecond (arcsec), or arc second, denoted by the symbol ″, [2] is ⁠ 1 60 ⁠ of an arcminute, ⁠ 1 3600 ...
