Length conversion chart

If you're searching for a simple method to swiftly switch between units within a single system, take a an interest in these two length charts:

1. The system that measures metrics.

For instance:

• 6 km = 6 * 1000 = 6000 m
• 180 cm = 180 / 100 = 1.8 m

1. The Imperial US measurement system. US measure system

For example:

• 5 yd = 5 * 3 = 15 ft
• 144 in = 144 / 12 = 12 ft

We've also decided to create an index of the most frequently requested length converters. The most commonly requested ones to search for are:

• 1 foot 0.00018939 mile
• 1 yard = 5280 feet

Inch definition

An inch (abbreviate which means "or ") is a measurement of length which is used to describe the Imperial or the US measuring system. The word can be defined in many ways including the length and size of the thumb. In certain languages e.g. Norwegian, Afrikaans, Italian or French the term "inch" originates from the word"thumb" or in some instances , it's the similar concept. From the beginning of 14th century,"inches" have been defined during the rule of Edward I. Edward I. England to comprise 3 grains of barley that were round and dry, and put between the two ends of the longways. The definition of an inch changed over time, up to the 1950, at which point the 1950's international standard was adopted, and, since the 1950's, an inch is 2.54 centimeters.

1 in = 2.54 cm

One inch is also one-third of a yard. 1/12 of a foot is 1/6360 of a mile.

In daily life, the usage of inches is commonplace in every one of US, UK, Canada and other countries which were once part of the British Empire. Along with length, width as well as height can be measured using various dimensions, and also in units derived by inches (e.g. the size of shoes are).

In what units are inches measured? Not just in the US however , but all over the world?

• Screen dimensions of monitors, smartphones, TVs , and phones (specifically measurements of dimensions of the diagonals on a rectangular screen)
• Screen Resolution PPI (pixels per inch)
• dimension of tire dimensions of tire e.g. wheel on a bicycle or car
• various tools and pipes with different dimensions
• Certain sports equipments employ measurements in inches. e.g. to shoot archery.
• in the field of science. e.g. Acoustics in the field of science, for example. Acoustics microphones as well as size of speakers.

"One International inch" is a reference to "One International inch is equivalent to:

• 10,000 10ths of a 10th
• 1,000 thou/mil
• Points or 100g
• 72 PostScript points
• 6 computer picas
• 3 barleycorns

• 1/3 of 0.333 palms
• 1/4, or 0.25 hands
• 1/12 (or 0.08333 feet
• 1/36 or 0.02777 yards

Feet definition

Foot (abbreviate by "ft" or ") is a measurement length unit that is used in the Imperial or US standard measurement system. The measurement is that is based on the body of a person, as the name suggests. The standardization was first introduced in the 1950, and it is equal to 0.3048 meters precisely:

1 ft = 0.3048 m = 304.8 mm

The use of the foot was used from the beginning of time in various cultures, but it is unclear how long did it take for the foot to be utilized among these different peoples. The foot was utilized in different methods, e.g. in:

• Ancient Rome: 1 foot = 11.6 inches (295.7 mm). This was a standard foot, but in certain areas it could be longer than 13.2 inches (334 millimeters)
• Greece: 1 foot = 10.6-13.8 inches (270 - 350 millimeters)
• Indus cities in the Bronze Age: 1 foot equals 13.2 inches (333.5 millimeters)
• Egypt equals twelve inches (304.8 millimeters)

Official Imperial Standard of Measurement for use in public, Greenwich

The measurement of feet is used extensively throughout England The measurement was initially used in England as well as in England to determine the length of feet. The measurement also changed over time and at first, it was used in conjunction with Roman standards. Later, it was modified into Belgic Celts foot of 13.2 inches, and Welsh foot, however it was later removed. The measurements of feet varied across different areas and from city to city and rulers changed the measurements according to their own preferences and desires. e.g., Henry I was believed as the one who ordered the development of the new measurement, which was inspired by his arm. The following period, Edward II of England introduced some form of standardization. He also introduced the statute foot, which was 10/11 smaller than the prior foot. It was first introduced later, in the year 1959, which was also the year in which the International yard-and-pound agreement came into force. Since since that time, the length of an entire yard across the United States and countries in the British Commonwealth is equal to precisely 0.9144 meters. When yard first became popular in early times, it became also possible to measure feet too. Similar to:

1 foot = (1/3) * yard = (1/3) * 0.9144 m = 0.3048 m

In the US Two types of foot are used on a regular basis, which includes the foot used for international travel as well as the type of foot used for survey.

1. International footAlso called"the"standard" foot was first standardized in the 1950s. It is widely used in a variety of situations and corresponds to 0.3048 millimeters. one foot international 0.3048 millimeters and we've used the symbol to communicate the significance of the meaning of the number. The measurement used across the world is the exact measurement for the human foot, which measures 13 (UK) and fourteen (US male).
2. Survey foot It is also called"the" US Survey Foot. is almost identical to feet of the earth. But, the word Nearly is the most important . Survey feet are precisely 1200/3937 meters 1 US survey foot = 1200/3937 m 0,30480060960121920243840487680975... m As you can see, it seems as if there is a small difference - but there's an increase once you get near the seventh decimal! The difference isn't that significant within the range of 0,609 millimeters or 609 nanometers if you compare various types of feet with each other. Why is this important? It's important because the distinction isn't that significant when measuring tiny objects, but it becomes more crucial when we start measuring thousands of feet, such as in the case of mapping or employ SPCS which is also known as the State Plane Coordinate Systems (SPCS). Additionally, the foot survey law survey differs across fifty states.
   • The laws of the 24 states require surveys to be constructed upon US survey of foot. US survey are built upon foot.
   • Eight states have decided to sign the declaration and be part of to the world foot
   • 18 states aren't subject to the exact conversion ratio to determine the unit of measurement. However, don't worry over it in the need of a conversion rate for your regular conveyances or for assessing your property. The differences aren't significant for shorter lengths (less 1 mile) and it doesn't matter which definition you choose to apply.
   A different measure of foot, known as the Indian survey foot . It's described as precisely 0.3047996 M: 1. Indian survey feet = 0.3047996 meters

Feet and the entire imperial system are widely used throughout the US. It is almost exclusively used in the United States. The US is believed to be the sole industrialized country that isn't capable of implementing the International System of Units, that is commonly referred to as the measurement system which uses units that are referred to as by the term the metric. Two other countries that use the measurement method include Liberia in Africa in Africa within Africa in Africa within Africa in Africa as well as Myanmar (also called Burma) situated within Southeast Asia. Canadians and the British use a mixture of two measurement systems that are imperial and metric (e.g. male height typically can be measured by inches, however, inches can also be used).

Feet isn't widely used in countries with English as their primary language. One of the most obvious examples is to establish the legitimacy of an airline's place in the travel industry.

Meter definition

Meter (British English: metre) is the most fundamental length unit used in a myriad of metrics, including those used in the International System of Units (SI).

Meter's definition has been altered because the methods used to measure scientific data has changed. Meter's definition says that it is a path for light that travels in the vacuum less than one 99,792,458 seconds.

What was its meaning when it was when it was first established?

• The first attempts to measure meters started in 1790. In 1790-1790, 1790 was the year that French National Assembly decided that the length of a brand new meters will be exactly the length that the pendulum, as well as the half-period average would take 1 second. Check the accuracy of this calculation by making use of the calculator for pendulum. Input 2 numbers into the box for duration of the pendulum, and you'll know is the duration of the pendulum. It's actually closer than 1 meters (0.993621 meters).

• In 1973, the dimensions of Earth was selected as a clear reference point. "Meter" was the term used to define the distance between two points "meter" was used to be a reference to one-tenth of the distance from the equator until North Pole. North Pole: 1 meter is one tenth of the quarter meridional circle on Earth which is located along the Meridian. The North Pole connects 2 points, Paris as well as the Earth and Paris
• From 1799 to 1889, and also in the year 1889, platinum as well as the alloy made up of 10 percent Iridium and platinum-based meter bars were created using an illustration that had an aluminum base that was able to measure the length meridian on Earth. It was the 1st General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1889 that was the first to establish the meters as the length of the bar measured by two lines from the typical bar that was made from the alloy mentioned above. This International Prototype Meter is situated in the International Bureau of Weights and Measures located in Sevres close to Paris. The word "meter" was first introduced in the 1960s it was used in the 11th General Conference on Weights and Measures.
• Between the years between 1960 between 1960 and 1983 The meters were upgraded between 1960 between 1960 and 1983. They changed their names in the form of 1,650,763.73 wavelengths. These were caused by radioactive red-orange Krypton86 under certain conditions.
• 17th Conference defined"meter" to be 1/299,792,458 of the distance light travels in one minute. This definition of meters will be in force until.

The table below provides the time-line of the definition of the word "meter" (by Cardarelli, 2003).

Imperial US measurement system. US measurement system

Imperial Measurements in the Imperial US measurement system, as well as the US measuring systems aren't exactly the same however, in terms of length measurements, they're the identical (they differ in the volume measurements, which means e.g. the cup could have floz in it, and this is different from the measurements systems). The only countries to not accept this measurement method as an metric were Liberia, the US, Liberia and Myanmar.

The six most commonly used US length units (also called Imperial length units) were included in our length converter:

• 1 millimeter (mil also known as Tho),
• Inches (in),
• feet (ft),
• inches and feet
• yards (yd),
• miles (mi).

There are two additional length units, but we've eliminated them from the length converter on purpose: The term "furlong" refers to the fact that the "furlong"'s conversion ratio isn't well-defined and"league" refers to the fact that "league" was once the most commonly used measure in Europe and Latin America but is no ever an official measurement or measure in the slightest. However, they're listed below as well as the most commonly used values:

Unit	Comparatively to the previous	Feet	Millimeters	Meters
Thous (th)		1/12000	0.0254	0.0000254

Metric measurement system

The measurement system that is used within the system of metric measurement, often referred to as"the International System of Units (SI) incorporates the international decimal system that is used to calculate weights and measurements. It is extensively utilized all over the world (apart of the three countries mentioned in the previous sections) It is easy to utilize and is practical. The four main elements that comprise the system of measurement utilized in the system of metric are:

• meters ( m) for length
• kg ( kg) for mass (check out this conversion of weight),
• Second ( s) for time,
• ampere (A) for electromagnetism.
