In the United States, Canada, and Mexico, ring sizes are specified using a numerical scale with 1⁄4 steps, where whole sizes differ by 0.032 inches (0.81 mm) of internal diameter, equivalent to 0.1005 inches (2.55 mm) of internal circumference. The relationship of this size ( ) to ISO 8653:2016 circumference ( ) is , while the relationship to ...
A child's size zero is equivalent to 4 inches (a hand = 12 barleycorns = 10.16 cm), and the sizes go up to size 13 + 1 ⁄ 2 (measuring 25 + 1 ⁄ 2 barleycorns, or 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (21.59 cm)). Thus, the calculation for a children's shoe size in the UK is: child shoe size (barleycorns) = 3 × last length (in) − 12. equivalent to:
one Twente ell (Twentse el) = 58.7 cm. In 1725 The Hague ell was fixed as the national standard for tax purposes and from 1816 to 1869, the word el was used in the Netherlands to refer to the metre. In 1869 the word meter was adopted and the el, disappeared, both as a word and as a unit of measurement.
The micrometre (Commonwealth English as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; [1] SI symbol: μm) or micrometer (American English), also commonly known by the non-SI term micron, [2] is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equalling 1 × 10 −6 metre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10 −6); that is, one millionth of a metre (or one thousandth of a ...
The Coup d'état of December Twelfth or the 12·12 Military Insurrection (Korean: 12·12 군사 반란; Hanja: 十二十二軍事反亂) was a military mutiny which took place on December 12, 1979, in South Korea.
Sizes are often expressed as a fraction of an inch, with a one in the numerator, and a decimal number in the denominator. For example, 1/2.5 converts to 2/5 as a simple fraction, or 0.4 as a decimal number. This "inch" system gives a result approximately 1.5 times the length of the diagonal of the sensor.
The blade must not be more than 4.25 inches (10.8 cm) wide and the total length of the bat not more than 38 inches (97 cm). There is no standard for the weight, which is usually between 2 lb 7 oz and 3 lb (1.1 and 1.4 kg). [86] [87] The ball is a hard leather-seamed spheroid, with a circumference of 9 inches (23 cm). The ball has a "seam": six ...
The JSS 800s (2-12-2Ts or 1F1 in UIC notation) also known as Javanic had been used by the Staatsspoorwegen in freight service in Java and Sumatra, Dutch East Indies, now Indonesia. They were assigned the railroad numbers 801-823 and H130-134. [2] After Indonesian Independence, they were renumbered as F1001-F1026 by Indonesian State Railways.
