词条 | Square kilometre |
释义 |
Square kilometre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures) or square kilometer (American spelling), symbol km2, is a multiple of the square metre, the SI unit of area or surface area. 1 km2 is equal to:
It is also approximately equal to:
Conversely:
The symbol "km2" means (km)2, square kilometre or kilometre squared and not k(m2), kilo–square metre. For example, 3 km2 is equal to {{gaps|3|×|(1,000|m)2}} = 3,000,000 m2, not 3,000 m2. Examples of areas of 1 square kilometreTopographical Map gridsTopographical map grids are worked out in metres, with the grid lines being 1,000 metres apart.
In each case, the grid lines enclose one square kilometre. Medieval city centresThe area enclosed by the walls of many European medieval cities were about one square kilometre. These walls are often either still standing or the route they followed is still clearly visible, such as in Brussels, where the wall has been replaced by a ring road, or in Frankfurt, where the wall has been replaced by gardens. The approximate area of the old walled cities can often be worked out by fitting the course of the wall to a rectangle or an oval (ellipse). Examples include
The walled city of Delft was approximately rectangular. The approximate length of rectangle was about {{convert|1.30|km|mi}}.[5] The approximate width of the rectangle was about {{convert|0.75|km|mi}}.[5] A perfect rectangle with these measurements has an area of 1.30×0.75 = 0.9 km2
The medieval city is roughly rectangular with rounded north-east and north-west corners. The maximum distance from east to west is {{convert|1.36|km|mi}}.[5] The maximum distance from north to south is {{convert|0.80|km|mi}}.[5] A perfect rectangle of these dimensions would be 1.36×0.80 = 1.088 km2.
The medieval city of Brugge, a major centre in Flanders, was roughly oval or elliptical in shape with the longer or semi-major axis running north and south. The maximum distance from north to south (semi-major axis) is {{convert|2.53|km|mi}}.[5] The maximum distance from east to west (semi-minor axis) is {{convert|1.81|km|mi}}.[5] A perfect ellipse of these dimensions would be 2.53 × 1.81 × (π/4) = 3.597 km2.
Chester is one of the smaller English cities that has a near-intact city wall.[6] The distance from Northgate to Watergate is about 855 metres.[5] The distance from Eastgate to Westgate is about 589 metres.[5] A perfect rectangle of these dimensions would be (855/1000) × (589/1000) = 0.504 km2. ParksParks come in all sizes; a few are almost exactly one square kilometre in area. Here are some examples:
Golf coursesUsing the figures published by golf course architects Crafter and Mogford, a course should have a fairway width of 120 metres and 40 metres clear beyond the hole. Assuming a {{convert|6000|m|yd}} 18-hole course, an area of 80 hectares (0.8 square kilometre) needs to be allocated for the course itself.[16][17] Examples of golf courses that are about one square kilometre include:
Other areas of one square kilometre or thereabouts
