    Dollhouse for a dollhouse scale for 1:12 dollhouses. Commonly used for mini armor. Used for 12 mm, and 12.5 mm figure scale miniature wargaming. 1:128: 3 ⁄ 32 in: 2.381 mm A few rockets and some fit-in-the-box aircraft are made to this size. 1:120: 0.1 in: 2.54 mm: Model railways (TT) Derived from the scale of 1 inch equals 10 feet.TT model ...

  3. Scale (ratio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(ratio)

    The scale of a map projection must be interpreted as a nominal scale. (The usage large and small in relation to map scales relates to their expressions as fractions. The fraction 1/10,000 used for a local map is much larger than the 1/100,000,000 used for a global map. There is no fixed dividing line between small and large scales.)

    The scale of the model is 1:1000 on the horizontal axis and 1:100 on the vertical axis. The model operates at a time scale of 1:100. [6] The model is distorted by a factor of ten between the horizontal and vertical scales. The distortion is designed into the model to ensure a proper hydraulic flow over the tidal flats and shallows.

  5. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). 1.0 mm – 1/1,000 of a meter; 1.0 mm – 0.03937 inches or 5/127 (exactly) 1.0 mm – side of a square of area 1 mm²; 1.0 mm – diameter of a pinhead; 1.5 mm – average length of a flea [27]

    Thus the scale and approximate prototype gauge are represented, with the model gauge used (9 mm for H0e gauge; 6.5 mm for H0f gauge) being implied. [ 2 ] The scales used include the general European modelling range of Z, N, TT, H0, 0 and also the large model engineering gauges of I to X, including 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 , 5, 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 and 10 + 1 ⁄ 4 ...

    The MERU, or Milli Earth Rate Unit, is an angular velocity equal to 1/1000 of Earth's rotation rate. It was introduced by MIT's Instrumentation Laboratories (now Draper Labs) to measure the performance of inertial navigation systems. [79] One MERU = 7.292 115 × 10 ^ −8 radians per second [80] or about 0.2625 milliradians/hour.

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Rail_transport_modelling_scales

    Ridable, outdoor gauge, named according to the gauge in inches, and scale in inches per foot, for example 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (184 mm) gauge, 1.5 inch scale. The gauge is 7 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (190.5 mm) in the US and Canada, where the scale sometimes is 1.6 inch for diesel-type models. Private and public (club) tracks exist in many areas.
