  2. Milliradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milliradian

    While a radian is defined as an angle on the unit circle where the arc and radius have equal length, a milliradian is defined as the angle where the arc length is one thousandth of the radius. Therefore, when using milliradians for range estimation, the unit used for target distance needs to be thousand times as large as the unit used for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadiametric_rangefinding

    Range (r) = approximate height of object (h) × (1000 ÷ aperture in milliradians (a)) r = h(1000/a) → where r and h are identical units, and a is in milliradians. r = h/a → where r and h are identical units, and a is in radians. The above formula functions for any system of linear measure provided r and h are calculated with the same units.

  5. Radian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian

    One radian is defined as the angle at the center of a circle in a plane that subtends an arc whose length equals the radius of the circle. [6] More generally, the magnitude in radians of a subtended angle is equal to the ratio of the arc length to the radius of the circle; that is, =, where θ is the magnitude in radians of the subtended angle, s is arc length, and r is radius.

  6. Shot grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_grouping

    When using the SI or metric units, shooting accuracy is more easily measured in milliradians ("mil" or "mrad" for short), which is an arc-based angular unit corresponding to 1/1,000th of a radian, and mathematically a direct ratio between the length of a circular arc and its radius.

    The unit one (1) is the unit of a quantity of dimension one. It is the neutral element of any system of units. [2] In addition to the unit one, the SI defines 7 base units and associated symbols: The second (s) is the unit of time. The metre (m) is the unit of length. The kilogram (kg) is the unit of mass. The ampere (A) is the unit of electric ...

    where f is the focal length of the lens. [1] Note that this measurement is valid only when the beam size is measured at the rear focal plane of the lens, i.e. where the focus would lie for a truly collimated beam, and not at the actual focus of the beam, which would occur behind the rear focal plane for a divergent beam.
