Facts about Mile

Basic facts: The mile, sometimes the international mile [statute mile] to distinguish it from other miles, is the US customary and British imperial unit of distance [symbol: mi or m]. It is currently defined as 1,760 yards, 5,280 feet, or exactly 1,609.344 meters.

History: A mile is an English unit [predecessor of Imperial units and United States Customary Unit] of length. Before the widespread adoption of the metric system, the use of the abbreviation “m” for a mile was common; “mi” became the preferred abbreviation in order to avoid confusion between miles and meters, it happened after the adoption of the metric system. The definition of a mile as 5,280 feet [or 8 furlongs], sometimes referred to as the statute mile, land mile, or international mile, which differs from the Roman mile of 5,000 feet, developed back in 1593, due to the significance of the furlong in England. There also exist a number of units based on, or closely related to, the Roman mile, including the nautical mile [1.852 km exactly], Chinese mile [500m exactly], and Italian mile [approx. 1.852 km].

Use: Regardless of the fact that most countries have adopted the metric system and use kilometers, rather than miles, to express land distance, the mile is still mostly used in countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Liberia, and Myanmar, as well as some other countries which are territories either of UK or US or have historical connections with either country.

Facts about Foot

Basic facts: A foot is a unit of length in the US customary and imperial systems of measurement, its symbol is (ft). in 1959, a foot was represented as precisely 0.3048 meters. 1 foot contains 12 inches, and 1 yard is comprised of 3 feet.

History: The measurement of the foot was used in many different systems including the Roman, Greek, English, French and Chinese systems, varying in length between each. This was prior to the standardization of units of measurement, and the definition of the foot presently in use. Historically, parts of the human body were used as a basis for units of length [like the cubit, hand, digit, span, and many others, sometimes called anthropic units], therefore various lengths existed. Compared to the present definition of 304.8 mm, the measurement of a foot varied between 250 mm and 335 mm in the past. The United States is one of the few, countries in which the foot is still used widely. Prior to metrication, many countries used their own version of the foot.

Use: The foot is predominantly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada, for many daily applications. In the United States, feet, and inches are typically used to measure shorter distances, height, field length [sometimes in the form of yards], etc. Feet are also commonly used to measure altitude [in aviation] as well as elevation [such as that of a mountain]. The international foot corresponds to human feet with shoe size 14 [US male], 13 [UK], 15.5 [US female], or 46 [EU].
