    What is a Fathom?

    Definition: A Fathom (symbol: ftm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The fathom is one of the oldest units of length measured primarily in seaborne applications, and this unit measures six feet or 72 inches in value. The word "fathom" comes from the Old English word folding of "ftm," with a meaning that encompasses the idea of its physical meaning, ‘to encircle’. hence the fathom was adopted as the most familiar unit for them in this line. The spirit is of the fathom is like standing at a dock, with your arms spread wide, trying to guess how deep the water below you is.
    History of ftm: In the late medieval period the fathom began to be standardized to be used as a measurement for distance, it was set at 6 feet. It featured a simplicity that caused it to become indispensable in navigation, ship construction, and fishing since sailors required correct measurements in order to avoid obstacles on the sea floor. Since older charts depicted ocean depths some of them provided information in terms of fathoms and assisted the mariner on the contours of the seabed.

    What is a Decameter?

    Definition: A Decameter (symbol: dam) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The decameter whose sign is indicated as 'dam' is one of the few distinctive standards of length in the metric system and equals ten meters. Although it is a rare unit that hardly comes up in peoples’ day-to-day activities. the decameter is quite useful when measuring mid-range distances as meters would seem too small while kilometers would be too large to measure.
    History of dam: A decimeter is a measurement that is ten times larger than a meter: the ten meters were adopted as part of the metric system during the late 18th century French Revolution. This was mainly because, at that period, different regions used inconsistent units of measurement in order to trade or even communicate scientific findings. France introduced revolutionary ideas into the standardization attempts, and in 1791, the French Academy of Science introduced the metric system - a rational, and a decimal-based system that stood for the universal one.
