How to convert Arcsecond to Sextant (arcsec to sextant)
To convert Arcsecond to Sextant, multiply by 0.0000046296296296296. The formula is Arcsecond × 0.0000046296296296296 = Sextant. See the example below.
1 Arcsecond = 1 × 0.0000046296296296296 = 0.0000046296296296296 Sextants
Arcsec also known as arc second or second arc is a unit of angular measurement. One second of arc is equal to 1/60 of an arcminute, 1/3600 of a degree, 1/296000 of a turn. That means one full circle will have 1296000 arcseconds. Similar to arcmin, arcsec was originated in Babylonian astronomy as sexagesimal subdivisions of the degree. It is primarily used in fields where most of the work involves working with small angles such as optometry, ophthalmology, and astronomy. In astronomy related work, it is used for comparison of angular diameter of Moon, Sun, and planets. Apart from that, it is also used in cartography and navigation. The symbol for Arcsecond is arcsec.
A sextant helps in measuring angular distance between 2 visible objects. It is basically a doubly reflecting navigation instrument. It is primarily used for the measurement of angle between astronomical object and horizon. The symbol for Sextant is sextant.
