Range Estimation Test (1) What are the two main methods for determining range to a target? Estimating and measuring Guessing and calculating Appearance and terrain Shooting and observing (2) What range estimation method involves placing a paper edge along two points on a map? 100 meter unit of measure Map estimation Appearance of objects Mil relation formula (3) When using the appearance of objects method, a target will appear closer if: It blends into the background It has an irregular outline The observer is looking downhill It contrasts with its background (4) According to standard observers, how far away is a target that appears as just a solid wedge shape? 500 meters 600 meters 700 meters 800 meters (5) What type of terrain makes a target appear further away? Smooth terrain Looking downhill Open areas Looking uphill (6) When will a target appear closer due to light conditions? When the sun is behind the target During limited visibility When the target is in full sunlight At dawn or dusk (7) What method provides the most consistently accurate range estimation? Laser range finder Map estimation Appearance of objects Mil relation formula (8) What formula is used to determine range using mils? Target size x distance / mils Mils x target size / distance Target size x 25.4 / mils Distance x mils / target size (9) How many mils are in one degree? 3.41 6.25 100 17.78 (10) According to the standard to metric conversion, what is the constant if the target size is 40 inches? 40 1016 2540 6000
