What unit of chain length in Britain is equal to 75 feet?

This is one of the dictionary definitions of the word "shot", see http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-definitions/shot. In surveying, the 'chain' means 66ft, 10 chains = 1 furlong, but this is a different use of the unit of chain length. ________________________________________________________________ In the imperial system of measurement there are two units referred to as a "chain". As already stated the usual measurement is the Surveyor's chain (also known as Gunter's chain) = 66 feet. The Engineer's chain = 100 feet. So 75 feet is equal to 1.136 chains, or 0.75 Engineer's chains


How many chain equal to 1 dismal?

A chain can never be equal to 1 dismal. Dismal is not something that can be measured, it means something is dull, boring, hopeless, or depressing. Chain lengths vary and there is not one single length for all chains.


Why is twenty two yards called a chain?

In 1620, the clergyman Edmund Gunter developed a method of surveying land accurately with low technology equipment, using what became known as Gunter's chain. This was 66 feet (22 yards) long and from the practice of using his chain, the word transferred to the actual measured unit. His chain had 100 links, and the link is used as a subdivision of the chain as a unit of length. A rectangle of land one furlong in length and one chain in width has an area of one acre. It is sometimes suggested that this was a medieval parcel of land capable of being worked by one man and supporting one family, but there is no documentary support for this assertion, and it would in any case have predated Gunter's work.


What is the unit measurement for customary length?

It depends on the length that you wish to measure: a mile, furlong, chain, fathom, yard, foot, inch are all possibilities.

Chain length why does it matter?

Chain length is important in a bicycle because it affects the overall gear ratio and the efficiency of power transfer from the pedals to the wheels. A proper chain length ensures smooth shifting and pedaling, while incorrect chain length can lead to decreased performance, excessive wear on the drivetrain, and potential chain drop issues.

How long can a food chain be?

A food chain can only be up to 5 trophic levels in length, including the producer. Only a small proportion of the previous organism's energy is passed down through trophic levels to the next organism. This diminishes the energy available, so there is little or no energy to be gained after the 5th stage of a food chain. :)

What are the obstacles to chain surveying?

Those are disturbing the line of measuring is called Obstacles. The actual length of the chain is become short or some time long. this error factor are removed by calculation after measuring the distance between then by as Total Distance = (difference in length of chain /original length of chain)* Measured Distance.
