John Logie Baird gave the first demonstration of a colour television transmission on July 3rd, 1928. The leading pioneer in the creation of television, John Logie Baird, was a Scotsman, born in 1888, the son of a Presbyterian minister, and educated in Glasgow. An electrical engineer and an eccentric genius, he was no businessman, his health was precarious and after a time spent marketing socks, jam and soap he suffered a nervous breakdown.
A minute of arc (MOA), arcminute (arcmin) or minute arc is a unit of angular measurement equal to one-sixtieth (1â60) of one degree. As one degree is 1â360 of a circle, one minute of arc is 1â21600 of a circle (or, in radians, Ïâ10800). It is used in fields that involve very small angles, such as astronomy, optometry, ophthalmology, optics, navigation, land surveying and marksmanship.
This calculator requires the use of Javascript enabled and capable browsers. Enter the degrees in the valid range of 0 to 360 degrees, (0 and 360 being the same direction), minutes in 0 to 60 and seconds in 0 to 60.The answers returned are decimal degrees, the degrees based on the factors of minutes and seconds, and also in radians.To convert decimal form to degrees/minutes/seconds, take the decimal part of the coordinate and multiply by 60 to get the minutes.Take the decimal part of the minutes and multiply by 60, round to the nearest integer.arious sources don't always agree on figures, and GPS receiver results are usually different from any of them.
