Fathom is unit of

  • A.Depth
  • B.Distance
  • C.Frequency
  • D.Sound

Answer: A

The fathom is a unit of depth.

A fathom equals 6 feet (about 1.83 m), roughly the span of a man's outstretched arms. It is used mainly to measure the depth of water, in navigation and on nautical charts.

Strictly it is a length, but its use is for depth rather than distance along the surface, which is measured in nautical miles. Frequency is measured in hertz and sound level in decibels.
