    Dollhouse for a dollhouse scale for 1:12 dollhouses. Commonly used for mini armor. Used for 12 mm, and 12.5 mm figure scale miniature wargaming. 1:128: 3 ⁄ 32 in: 2.381 mm A few rockets and some fit-in-the-box aircraft are made to this size. 1:120: 0.1 in: 2.54 mm: Model railways (TT) Derived from the scale of 1 inch equals 10 feet.TT model

  3. Minute and second of arc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_and_second_of_arc

    1 mrad ≈ 3.44′, so 1 / 10 mrad ≈ 1 / 3 ′ 0.1 mrad equals exactly 1 cm at 100 m, or exactly 0.36 inches at 100 yards; Human vision. In humans, 20/20 vision is the ability to resolve a spatial pattern separated by a visual angle of one minute of arc, from a distance of twenty feet. A 20/20 letter subtends 5 minutes of arc total.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LogMAR_chart

    A Snellen score of 6/6 (20/20), indicating that an observer can resolve details as small as 1 minute of visual angle, corresponds to a LogMAR of 0 (since the base-10 logarithm of 1 is 0); a Snellen score of 6/12 (20/40), indicating an observer can resolve details as small as 2 minutes of visual angle, corresponds to a LogMAR of 0.3 (since the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_(unit)

    The chain (abbreviated ch) is a unit of length equal to 66 feet (22 yards ), used in both the US customary and Imperial unit systems. It is subdivided into 100 links. [1] [2] There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile. [2] In metric terms, it is 20.1168 m long. [2] By extension, chainage (running distance) is the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

    Imperial units. 0.224809 lbf. The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as , the force which gives a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 metre per second squared. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of motion .

  7. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

    The top left graph is linear in the X and Y axes, and the Y-axis ranges from 0 to 10. A base-10 log scale is used for the Y axis of the bottom left graph, and the Y axis ranges from 0.1 to 1,000. The top right graph uses a log-10 scale for just the X axis, and the bottom right graph uses a log-10 scale for both the X axis and the Y axis.

    Standard units in Regensburg: the metal rods are (from left to right) a fathom (klafter), foot (schuch, Modern German Schuh "shoe") and ell (öln, Modern German Elle).. A fathom is a unit of length in the imperial and the U.S. customary systems equal to 6 feet (1.8288 m), used especially for measuring the depth of water.

  9. Scale (ratio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(ratio)

    The scale ratio of a model represents the proportional ratio of a linear dimension of the model to the same feature of the original. Examples include a 3-dimensional scale model of a building or the scale drawings of the elevations or plans of a building. [1] In such cases the scale is dimensionless and exact throughout the model or drawing.
