Examples

1

Consider that a river's depth is measured at 5 fathoms (US survey).
Convert this depth from fathoms (US survey) to Megameters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in fathoms (us survey) is:

Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 5

Formula:

The formula to convert length from fathoms (us survey) to megameters is:

Length(Megameters) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 546805.5556

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 5 in the above formula.

Length(Megameters) = 5 / 546805.5556

Length(Megameters) = 0.0000091440182873

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 0.0000091440182873 Mm.

The length is 0.0000091440182873 Mm, in megameters.

2

Consider that a dock extends into the sea for 8 fathoms (US survey).
Convert this length from fathoms (US survey) to Megameters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in fathoms (us survey) is:

Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 8

Formula:

The formula to convert length from fathoms (us survey) to megameters is:

Length(Megameters) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 546805.5556

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 8 in the above formula.

Length(Megameters) = 8 / 546805.5556

Length(Megameters) = 0.0000146304292597

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 0.0000146304292597 Mm.

The length is 0.0000146304292597 Mm, in megameters.

Fathoms (US survey)

A fathom (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in maritime contexts in the United States to measure water depth. One US survey fathom is equivalent to exactly 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.

The US survey fathom is defined as 6 feet, consistent with historical maritime measurement practices and used for depth soundings and underwater measurements.

Fathoms (US survey) are utilized in navigation, fishing, and marine activities in the United States to describe water depth. The unit provides a practical measurement for underwater distances and ensures consistency in maritime practices.

Megameters

A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One megameter is equivalent to 1,000,000 meters or approximately 621.371 miles.

The megameter is defined as one million meters, providing a measurement for very large distances, such as those encountered in planetary and astronomical contexts.

Megameters are used in fields such as astronomy and planetary science to describe distances on a scale larger than kilometers but smaller than astronomical units.
