What is the formula to convert from Milli-radians to Sextants?

The formula to convert angle value from the unit of Milli-radians to the unit of Sextants is:

Angle_(Sextants) = Angle_{(Milli-radians)} × 6 / (2000 × π)

Milli-radians unit in Angle

Milliradians (mrad) are a unit of angular measurement equal to one-thousandth of a radian. Milliradians are commonly used in military applications, optics, and ballistics, where precise angular measurements are needed over long distances. This unit is particularly useful in targeting systems and rangefinding.

Sextants unit in Angle

Sextants are a unit of angular measurement that divides a circle into six equal parts, with each sextant corresponding to 60 degrees. This unit is traditionally used in navigation, particularly in the context of sextants, the instruments used to measure the angle between a celestial object and the horizon.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about "Milli-radians ➜ Sextants" Conversion

1. What is the conversion formula from Milli-radians to Sextants?

The formula to convert Milli-radians to Sextants in Angle is:

Milli-radians * 6 / (2000 * π)

2. How do I convert from Milli-radians to Sextants given a value in Milli-radians units?

To convert Angle from Milli-radians to Sextants, you can use the following formula:

Milli-radians * 6 / (2000 * π)

For example, if you have a value in Milli-radians, you substitute that value in place of Milli-radians in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Sextants.
