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 miles (International).
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 miles (international) is:
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.00029036587538114155
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 6.6 in the above formula.
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 6.6 / 0.00029036587538114155
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 22729.9437
Final Answer:
Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 22729.9437 nmi.
The length is 22729.9437 nmi, in nautical miles (international).
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 miles (International).
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 miles (international) is:
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 0.00029036587538114155
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 0.000156 in the above formula.
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 0.000156 / 0.00029036587538114155
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 0.5372532
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 0.5372532 nmi.
The length is 0.5372532 nmi, in nautical miles (international).
Earth's equatorial radius to Nautical miles (International) Conversion Table
The following table gives some of the most used conversions from Earth's equatorial radius to Nautical miles (International).
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 miles (International)
A nautical mile (international) is a unit of length used in maritime and aviation contexts. One nautical mile is equivalent to 1,852 meters or approximately 1.15078 miles.
The nautical mile is defined based on the Earth's circumference and is equal to one minute of latitude.
Nautical miles are used worldwide for navigation at sea and in the air. They are particularly important for charting courses and distances in maritime and aviation industries, ensuring consistency and accuracy in navigation.
