1.5四方分(約2,778m) 1.5 arcminutes (app. 2,778m) in every directions Explanation: In nautical context this 分 refers to a minute of arc (or nautical mile = 1852 meters). And since this is measured around the enter of the ship it has to describe a circle (or a sphere). In my opinion 四方 in this context is just "in every direction". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days8 hrs (2010-03-08 21:28:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- in every direction, of course. Don't know how this "s" snuck in... Reference: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%88%86_%28%E8%A7%92%E5%BA%A6... |
