1 mile = 1760 yards
1 yard = 3 feet
1 foot = 12 inches.
Therefore 1 mile = 1760*3*12 = 63360 inches.
1/4 of a mile = 63,360/4 = 15840 inches.
Therefore 1 inch is representing 15,840 inches and the scale is 1:15,840

Terra Firma is the ground, or the firm earth. It represents the ground we stand on unshaken and not moving.
If the scale is 1:10, it means that every 1 cm on the map represents 10 meters on the ground. So, if a decimeter on the map (10 cm) represents 10 meters on the ground, the scale would be 1:10.
The fact that it is a quarter is totally irrelevant. It will hit the ground at a speed of 19.6 feet/sec.
Green is the usual colour that represents ground in electrical equipment.
