Archaeologists consider that this 51.85 centimetres long unit was the origin of the Roman foot. ... (1 ⁄ 1000 of an inch) inch (25.4 mm) foot (12 inches, 0.3048 m)
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:
Tablet cases sizes Tablet PC Height Width Depth Screen Case size Acer Iconia Tab A500 [1]: 10.2 in (260 mm) 7 in (180 mm) 0.52 in (13 mm) 10.1 in (260 mm)
Fog particles are around 10–50 μm (0.00039–0.00197 in) long. To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −5 m and 10 −4 m (10 μm and 100 μm). 10 μm – width of cotton fibre [92] 10 μm – tolerance of a Lego brick [93] 10 μm – transistor width of the Intel 4004, the world's first ...
At the time, Smoot was 5 feet, 7 inches, or 170 cm, tall. [18] Google Earth and Google Calculator include the smoot as a unit of measurement. The Cambridge (Massachusetts) police department adopted the convention of using Smoots to measure the locations of accidents and incidents on the bridge.
They are 16 inches in diameter and the barrel is 800 inches long (16 × 50 = 800). This is also sometimes indicated using the prefix L/; so for example, the most common gun for the Panzer V tank is described as a "75 mm L/70," meaning a barrel with an internal bore of 75 mm (3.0 in), and 5,250 mm (17 ft 3 in) long.
In many measurement systems based on former English units, the link has remained fixed at 0.66 feet, therefore 0.22 yards or 7.92 inches; it is the absolute length of the yard that has varied. A rare remaining application of the link is in the service of some surveying in the United States, which relates to the definition of the survey foot.
Many are also available with protection circuits that can increase their physical length; for example, an 18650 is around 65 mm (2.56 in) long, but may be around 68 mm (2.68 in) long with a protection circuit. Some such circuits increase cell diameter instead.
