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

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

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 7.88504844505782e-7

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 rods (us survey), i.e., Length(Rods (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 Rods (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 rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 7.88504844505782e-7

Substitution:

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

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 6.6 / 7.88504844505782e-7

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 8370271.9723

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 8370271.9723 rd.

The length is 8370271.9723 rd, in rods (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 Rods (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 rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 7.88504844505782e-7

Substitution:

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

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 0.000156 / 7.88504844505782e-7

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 197.8427921

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 197.8427921 rd.

The length is 197.8427921 rd, in rods (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.

Rods (US survey)

A rod (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying in the United States. One US survey rod is equivalent to exactly 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.

The US survey rod is defined as 16.5 feet, based on historical surveying practices and used for measuring and plotting land.

Rods (US survey) are used in land surveying, property measurement, and agricultural practices in the United States. The unit ensures consistency and accuracy in measuring shorter distances within these fields.
