The Kilometer (km) is used for longer distances like city-to-city travel (e.g., 50 km), marathon races (42.195 km), or highway spans (e.g., 100 km). It's also used in aviation and sports like cycling. The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level.
To convert between Kilometer (km) and Fathom (ftm), use the following formulas:
1 Kilometer (km) = 546.8066491688539 Fathom (ftm)
1 Fathom (ftm) = 0.0018288 Kilometer (km)
0.5 km = 0.5 * 546.8066491688539 ftm = 273.40332458442697 ftm
3 km = 3 * 546.8066491688539 ftm = 1640.4199475065618 ftm
7 km = 7 * 546.8066491688539 ftm = 3827.6465441819773 ftm
45 km = 45 * 546.8066491688539 ftm = 24606.299212598427 ftm
89 km = 89 * 546.8066491688539 ftm = 48665.791776028 ftm
