What is the Formula to convert Earth's equatorial radius to Petameters?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's equatorial radius to Petameters is:

Length(Petameters) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 156785028.89999998

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 petameters, i.e., Length(Petameters).

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 Petameters.

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 petameters is:

Length(Petameters) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 156785028.89999998

Substitution:

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

Length(Petameters) = 6.6 / 156785028.89999998

Length(Petameters) = 4.2095856e-8

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 4.2095856e-8 Pm.

The length is 4.2095856e-8 Pm, in petameters.

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 Petameters.

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 petameters is:

Length(Petameters) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 156785028.89999998

Substitution:

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

Length(Petameters) = 0.000156 / 156785028.89999998

Length(Petameters) = 9.95e-13

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 9.95e-13 Pm.

The length is 9.95e-13 Pm, in petameters.

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.

Petameters

A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One petameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192,237,333 miles.

The petameter is defined as one quadrillion meters, making it a measurement for extraordinarily large distances, often used in theoretical and cosmological contexts.

Petameters are used in fields such as astronomy and cosmology to describe distances on a scale larger than terameters. They provide a convenient way to express distances across immense regions of space, such as those encompassing multiple galaxies or even superclusters of galaxies.
