2. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

   American Wire Gauge ( AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [ 1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important factor for ...

3. Compass (drawing tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compass_(drawing_tool)

   A compass, also commonly known as a pair of compasses, is a technical drawing instrument that can be used for inscribing circles or arcs. As dividers, it can also be used as a tool to mark out distances, in particular, on maps. Compasses can be used for mathematics, drafting, navigation and other purposes. Prior to computerization, compasses ...

4. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

   [1] The Charrière is measured by the ''outer'' diameter, and is defined as 1 Fr = 1/3 mm, and thus 1 mm = 3 Fr; therefore the diameter of a round catheter in millimetres can be determined by dividing the French size by 3. [2] The French units roughly correspond to the outer circumference of the catheter (see table below).

5. Circular mil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mil

   A circular mil is a unit of area, equal to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch or 0.0254 mm). It corresponds to approximately 5.067 × 10−4 mm2. It is a unit intended for referring to the area of a wire with a circular cross section. As the definition of the unit contains π, it is easy to calculate area ...

6. Circle of confusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_confusion

   At the ordinary distance of vision, of from twelve to fifteen inches, circles of confusion are seen as points, if the angle subtended by them does not exceed one minute of arc, or roughly, if they do not exceed the 1/100 of an inch in diameter. Numerically, 1/100 inch at 12–15 inches is closer to two minutes of arc.
