4.600 Mm – width of the Mediterranean Sea; 4.800 Mm – length of the Sahara; 4.800 Mm – widest width of Atlantic Ocean (U.S.-Northern Africa) 5.100 Mm – distance from Dublin to New York as the crow flies; 6.270 Mm – length of the Mississippi-Missouri River system; 6.380 Mm – length of the Yangtze River; 6.400 Mm – Length of the ...
Rail height (in thousandths of an inch) is expressed as a "code": thus, Code 55 rails are 0.055 inches (1.4 mm) high while Code 80 rails have a height of 0.080 inches (2.0 mm). [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Common real railroad rails are at least 6 inches (150 mm) tall and can be taller on some roads, so at true scale the rails would be about 0.040 inches (1.0 ...
This is approximately 1 / 8 inch per mile; 12.7 kilometres is exactly 500,000 standard inches and exactly 499,999 survey inches. This difference is substantial when doing calculations in State Plane Coordinate Systems with coordinate values in the hundreds of thousands or millions of feet.
Works with 15 mm miniatures where a 6 foot man would equal 15.24 mm 1:110: 2.771 mm Used for some model ships, aircraft and diecast cars. 1:108: 2.822 mm An historic size for ships, also used for rockets and spacecraft. 15 mm figure scale for wargaming is considered interchangeable with this scale. [9] 1:100: 3.048 mm
Size in general is the magnitude or dimensions of a thing. More specifically, geometrical size (or spatial size) can refer to three geometrical measures: length, area, or volume. Length can be generalized to other linear dimensions (width, height, diameter, perimeter). Size can also be measured in terms of mass, especially when assuming a ...
To convert inches to hands, the number in inches is divided by four, then the remainder is added after the radix point. Thus, a horse that measures 60 inches is 15 hands high (15 × 4 = 60) and a horse halfway between 15 and 16 hands is 15.2 hands, or 62 inches tall (15 × 4 + 2 = 62) [ 5 ] [ 7 ] Because the subdivision of a hand is a base 4 ...
The smallest dimension the human eye can resolve is around 0.02 to 0.04 mm, approximately the width of a thin human hair. [6] A sheet of paper is typically between 0.07 mm and 0.18 mm thick, with ordinary printer paper or copy paper approximately 0.1 mm thick. [7]
