Examples

1

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

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 parsecs is:

Length(Parsecs) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 16872656445812036

Substitution:

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

Length(Parsecs) = 5 / 16872656445812036

Length(Parsecs) = 3e-16

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 3e-16 pc.

The length is 3e-16 pc, in parsecs.

2

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

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 parsecs is:

Length(Parsecs) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 16872656445812036

Substitution:

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

Length(Parsecs) = 8 / 16872656445812036

Length(Parsecs) = 5e-16

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 5e-16 pc.

The length is 5e-16 pc, in parsecs.

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.

Parsecs

A parsec (symbol: pc) is a unit of length used in astronomy. One parsec is approximately 3.26 light-years or 3.086 × 10¹³ kilometers.

The term parsec comes from "parallax of one arcsecond." It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.

Parsecs are commonly used to measure large distances between astronomical objects outside our solar system, such as between stars or galaxies.
