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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

Sextants * 2000 * π / 6

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

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