Satu mil berapa kilometer?

Friday, July 31, 2009

Ini sekedar koreksi singkat buat tulisan Kasijanto Sastrodinomo yang berjudul “Mil, Kilometer, dan Pal” yang terbit di rubrik bahasa Kompas hari ini. Pada alinea kedua tertulis:
Istilah ukuran jarak yang resmi digunakan di seluruh wilayah Indonesia adalah kilometer, disingkat km. Contoh: jarak Tarutung sampai Sipirok di Sumatera Utara adalah 75 kilometer; daerah Pogung Baru berada di Jalan Kaliurang Km 5 Yogyakarta; jarak Sumbawa Besar Km 4 sampai Banggo di Nusa Tenggara Barat adalah 165 kilometer, dan lain-lain. Satu mil setara dengan 1.852 meter.
Kalimat terakhir alinea itu mengandung salah fakta. Harusnya, satu mil setara 1.609,344 meter.

Yang setara 1.852 meter itu satu nautical mile atau mil bahari (bukan mil laut). Tapi pemakaian mil bahari pun agak tidak tepat, sebab tulisan itu mula-mula berangkat dari soal gangguan keamanan di sekitar PT Freeport, Papua.

Kenapa nggak cukup nyali? :D

There's nothing to fear but the fear itself.

Hehe... keren! Memang, konversi satuan berpotensi buat ulah di masyarakat. Beberapa tahun lalu sempat heboh tentang konversi satuan massa "ons" dan "gram". Terlepas bahwa kasus yang beredar hoax atau bukan, tapi memang banyak yang masih keliru soal yang satu ini.

Dan, sekarang masih ada satu kekeliruan yang masih kita pelihara sekarang: air mineral satu galon!

Galon adalah satuan volume, 1 galon mendekati 3,8 liter. Satu "galon" yang kita maksud dalam kasus air mineral harusnya disebut satu gentong. Satu gentong air Aqua, misalnya, berisi lima galon (atau sekiar 19 liter).
