What is the Formula to convert Earth's equatorial radius to Chains (US survey)?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's equatorial radius to Chains (US survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0000031540193748506824

Substitute the given value of length in earth's equatorial radius, i.e., Length(Earth's equatorial radius) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in chains (us survey), i.e., Length(Chains (US survey)).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a geostationary satellite orbits at a distance equal to 6.6 times Earth's equatorial radius.
Convert this distance from Earth's equatorial radius to Chains (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 6.6

Formula:

The formula to convert length from earth's equatorial radius to chains (us survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0000031540193748506824

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 6.6 in the above formula.

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 6.6 / 0.0000031540193748506824

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 2092567.9952

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 2092567.9952 ch.

The length is 2092567.9952 ch, in chains (us survey).

2

Consider that a mountain's height is measured as 0.000156 times Earth's equatorial radius.
Convert this height from Earth's equatorial radius to Chains (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 0.000156

Formula:

The formula to convert length from earth's equatorial radius to chains (us survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0000031540193748506824

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 0.000156 in the above formula.

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 0.000156 / 0.0000031540193748506824

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 49.4606981

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 49.4606981 ch.

The length is 49.4606981 ch, in chains (us survey).

Earth's equatorial radius

The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the equator. One Earth's equatorial radius is approximately 6,378.1 kilometers or about 3,963.2 miles.

The equatorial radius is the longest radius of the Earth due to its equatorial bulge, caused by the planet's rotation. This bulge results in a slightly larger radius at the equator compared to the polar radius.

The Earth's equatorial radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to define the Earth's shape and for accurate measurements of distances and areas on the Earth's surface. It provides a key parameter for understanding Earth's dimensions and its gravitational field.

Chains (US survey)

A chain (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying in the United States. One US survey chain is equivalent to exactly 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The US survey chain is defined as 66 feet, based on historical surveying practices and used for measuring and plotting land.

Chains (US survey) are used in land surveying for tasks such as property measurement, land division, and mapping in the United States. This unit ensures consistency and accuracy in surveying and land measurement activities.
