What is the Formula to convert Hexa-Contades to Seconds?

The formula to convert given angle from Hexa-Contades to Seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Hexa-Contades) × 21600

Substitute the given value of angle in hexa-contades, i.e., Angle(Hexa-Contades) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the angle in seconds, i.e., Angle(Seconds).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that an astronomical observation is recorded at 20 hexacontades.
Convert this angle from hexacontades to Seconds.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 20

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from hexa-contades to seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Hexa-Contades) × 21600

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 20 in the above formula.

Angle(Seconds) = 20 × 21600

Angle(Seconds) = 432000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 20 hexacontade is equal to 432000 ".

The angle is 432000 ", in seconds.

2

Consider that a solar panel's angle is adjusted by 10 hexacontades for maximum efficiency.
Convert this angle from hexacontades to Seconds.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from hexa-contades to seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Hexa-Contades) × 21600

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 10 in the above formula.

Angle(Seconds) = 10 × 21600

Angle(Seconds) = 216000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 hexacontade is equal to 216000 ".

The angle is 216000 ", in seconds.

Hexa-Contades

Hexa-contades are an ancient unit of angular measurement, originating from Babylonian astronomy, where the circle was divided into 60 parts, with each part further divided into 6 degrees. This system reflects the base-60 numeral system used by the Babylonians and was foundational in early astronomical calculations.

Seconds

Seconds of arc, often simply called arcseconds, are a further subdivision of minutes of arc, with 60 seconds in one minute. This small unit is used for extremely precise angular measurements, such as those needed in astronomy, optics, and surveying, where even minute differences in angle can be significant.
