Examples

1

Consider that a small piece of fabric is 4 nails long.
Convert this length from nails to Fathoms (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in nails (cloth) is:

Length_{(Nails (cloth))} = 4

Formula:

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

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = Length_{(Nails (cloth))} / 32.00006399678943

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Nails (cloth))} = 4 in the above formula.

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 4 / 32.00006399678943

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 0.125

Final Answer:

Therefore, 4 nail is equal to 0.125 fath.

The length is 0.125 fath, in fathoms (us survey).

2

Consider that a tailor measures a piece of cloth as 6 nails wide.
Convert this width from nails to Fathoms (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in nails (cloth) is:

Length_{(Nails (cloth))} = 6

Formula:

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

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = Length_{(Nails (cloth))} / 32.00006399678943

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Nails (cloth))} = 6 in the above formula.

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 6 / 32.00006399678943

Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 0.1875

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6 nail is equal to 0.1875 fath.

The length is 0.1875 fath, in fathoms (us survey).

Nails (cloth)

A nail is a historical unit of length used in cloth measurement and other contexts. One nail is approximately equivalent to 2 inches or 0.0508 meters.

The nail is based on the width of a person's nail or the length of a fingernail, and it was used for finer measurements in textiles and other applications.

Nail measurements were utilized in the textile industry and construction for detailed measurements. Although not commonly used today, the nail provides historical context for traditional measurement practices and standards.

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.
