On this (latter) metric, the most attractive ratio of leg to body for men (as seen by American women) is 1:1, [12] matching the 'four heads:four heads' ratio above. A Japanese study using the former metric found the same result for male attractiveness but women with longer legs than body were judged to be more attractive. [ 13 ]
1 Kancha = 5 Siki. 1 Chhataank = 4 Kancha. 1 Chhataank = 5 Bhari. 1 Adh-pav = 2 Chhatank = 1/8 Seer. 1 Pav = 2 Adh-pav = ¼ Seer (Pav means ¼) The unit pav is still used to this date however, it has been modified to "a fourth of a kilogram". 1 Adher = 2 Pav = ½ Seer.

The adult human brain weighs on average about 1.5 kg (3.3 lb). [ 1] In men the average weight is about 1370 g and in women about 1200 g. [ 2][contradictory] The volume is around 1260 cm 3 in men and 1130 cm 3 in women, although there is substantial individual variation. [ 3] Yet another study argued that adult human brain weight is 1300-1400 g ...
Vital capacity. Output of a spirometer. Vital capacity (VC) is the maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs after a maximum inhalation. It is equal to the sum of inspiratory reserve volume, tidal volume, and expiratory reserve volume. It is approximately equal to Forced Vital Capacity (FVC). [ 1][ 2]
Human height. Human height or stature is the distance from the bottom of the feet to the top of the head in a human body, standing erect. It is measured using a stadiometer, [1] in centimetres when using the metric system or SI system, [2] [3] or feet and inches when using United States customary units or the imperial system. [4] [5]

One fathom is equal to: 1.8288 metres exactly (Official international definition of the fathom) [ 10] 1.828804 m (Obsolete measurement of the fathom based on the US survey foot, only for use of historical and legacy applications) [ 11] 2 yards (1 yard is exactly 1⁄2 fathom) 6 feet (1 foot is exactly 1⁄6 fathom) 18 hands. 72 inches.
In scientific contexts, mass is the amount of "matter" in an object (though "matter" may be difficult to define), but weight is the force exerted on an object's matter by gravity. [ 1] At the Earth 's surface, an object whose mass is exactly one kilogram weighs approximately 9.81 newtons, the product of its mass and the gravitational field ...
