29er rims have an interior diameter of 622 millimetres (24.5 in) [1] and the average 29″ mountain bike tire is (in ISO notation) 59-622 – corresponding to an outside diameter of about 29.15 inches (740 mm). The typical 26″ MTB tire has a rim diameter of 559 millimetres (22.0 in) and an outside tire diameter of about 26 inches (660 mm).
A fire hydrant marked as 3-inch. The inch (symbol: in or ″) is a unit of length in the British Imperial and the United States customary systems of measurement.It is equal to 1 / 36 yard or 1 / 12 of a foot.
Mole (mol): Since all gases have the same volume per mole at a given temperature and pressure far from their points of liquefaction and solidification (see Perfect gas), and air is about 1 / 5 oxygen (molecular mass 32) and 4 / 5 nitrogen (molecular mass 28), the density of any near-perfect gas relative to air can be obtained to ...
11 cm = 1.1 dm – length of an average potato in the US; 13 cm = 1.3 dm – body length of a Goliath birdeater; 15 cm = 1.5 dm – approximate size of largest beetle species; 19 cm = 1.9 dm – length of a banana; 26.3 cm = 2.6 dm – length of average male human foot; 29.98 cm = 2.998 dm – distance light in vacuum travels in one nanosecond
The light-nanosecond is defined as exactly 29.9792458 cm. It was popularized in information technology as a unit of distance by Grace Hopper as the distance which a photon could travel in one billionth of a second (roughly 30 cm or one foot): "The speed of light is one foot per nanosecond." [6] [7]
