What is the Formula to convert Earth's equatorial radius to Nautical Leagues (UK)?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's equatorial radius to Nautical Leagues (UK) is:

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0008716545611122662

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 nautical leagues (uk), i.e., Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)).

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 Nautical Leagues (UK).

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 nautical leagues (uk) is:

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0008716545611122662

Substitution:

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

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = 6.6 / 0.0008716545611122662

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = 7571.8069

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 7571.8069 nautical league.

The length is 7571.8069 nautical league, in nautical leagues (uk).

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 Nautical Leagues (UK).

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 nautical leagues (uk) is:

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.0008716545611122662

Substitution:

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

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = 0.000156 / 0.0008716545611122662

Length(Nautical Leagues (UK)) = 0.17897

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 0.17897 nautical league.

The length is 0.17897 nautical league, in nautical leagues (uk).

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.

Nautical Leagues (UK)

A nautical league (UK) is a unit of length used in maritime contexts. One nautical league (UK) is equivalent to 3 nautical miles, which is approximately 5,556 meters or 3.452 miles.

The nautical league (UK) is defined as three times the length of a nautical mile, based on the Earth's circumference and one minute of latitude.

Nautical leagues (UK) are used historically for measuring distances at sea. While not commonly used in modern navigation, they remain a part of maritime history and are occasionally referenced in literature and older navigational texts.
