Fathoms 到脚转换器

法顿是什么?

A fathom is a traditional nautical unit of depth measurement equal to 6 feet (1.8288 meters). This unit has been used for centuries in maritime navigation, especially for measuring the depth of water beneath a ship. The word "fathom" comes from the Old English "fæðm," meaning "embracing arms" or "outstretched arms," reflecting its original measurement method.

历史起源

fathom起源于以人为主的测量法,代表了一个人被伸出手臂的指尖之间的距离. 这使它成为水手在用探空线测量深度时使用的实用单位. 一个水手只要伸出手臂 就能测量出一股血脉

By the Byzantine period, similar measurements existed across various cultures. The Ancient Greek "orguia" was comparable to our modern fathom. Throughout maritime history, the fathom has been standardized to different lengths, but by the 20th century, it was internationally defined as exactly 6 feet.

海上航行的意义

几个世纪以来,法特霍姆斯在航海中发挥了关键作用:

• 深度声音:Traditional nautical charts marked depths in fathoms. Sailors would use weighted lines marked with fathom points (called "sounding lines") to measure water depth and avoid hazards.
• 保险箱:了解地平线的深度有助于水手确定合适的锚地.
• 导航安全:了解深度变化有助于船只避免在浅滩、珊瑚礁或其他水下灾害上搁浅。
• 海洋术语:The fathom gave rise to expressions like "to deep six" (to throw overboard or discard), which comes from the practice of requiring at least six fathoms of water for burial at sea.

现代使用

虽然世界上大多数地区都采用了测量深度的度量系统,但是在几种情况下仍然使用同位素:

• 美国在一些海图上仍然使用fathoms.
• 传统渔民往往用鱼叉测量钓鱼线和渔网。
• 娱乐和商业船只上的许多深度探测器可以显示深度。
• 更古老的海图和历史海洋文献参考深度为fathoms.

纳粹世界的法特霍姆斯

除了简单的深度测量外,还把同位素纳入各种航海测量中:

• 电缆长度:根据海军情况,相当于100或120个方位。
• 被枪击或被铐:美国海军的锚链长度等于15平方英尺(90英尺).
• 线条:在渔业中,常指绳长为50平方英尺.

了解法则及其历史意义使我们深入了解海洋传统和现代技术之前为航海而发展出的实际解决办法。 今天,当我们转换成双脚时,我们与几个世纪的航海历史息息相关。
