Fathom


A fathom is a unit of length traditionally used to measure the depth of water. It equals 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.


Originating from the Old English word fĂŚĂ°m, meaning "to embrace" or "outstretched arms," the fathom was based on the average distance between a person's outstretched arms. It has been widely used by sailors and navigators to estimate sea depths and underwater distances.


Key facts:



  • 1 fathom = 6 feet



  • 1 fathom ≈ 1.8288 meters



  • 1 fathom = 2 yards



Though modern sonar and electronic instruments now measure depth more precisely, the fathom remains a traditional unit in nautical contexts, especially in maritime charts and historical references.



Centiinch


A centiinch is a very small unit of length equal to one-hundredth of an inch (0.01 inch). It is not commonly used in everyday measurement but may appear in fields requiring precise fractional measurements based on the inch.


Key details:



  • 1 centiinch = 0.01 inch



  • Equivalent to 0.254 millimeters



  • Used for fine measurements where inch subdivisions are preferred



  • Rare and mostly of specialized or historical interest



The centiinch allows for more detailed measurements within the inch system, similar to how centimeters subdivide a meter.
