Examples
1
Consider that a polar satellite orbits at a distance equal to 2.3 times Earth's polar radius. Convert this distance from Earth's polar radius to Astronomical Units.
Answer:
Given:
The length in earth's polar radius is:
Length(Earth's polar radius) = 2.3
Formula:
The formula to convert length from earth's polar radius to astronomical units is:
Therefore, 2.3 Earth's polar radius is equal to 0.0000977325882478 AU.
The length is 0.0000977325882478 AU, in astronomical units.

Consider that a polar ice cap extends to a height of 0.0001 times Earth's polar radius. Convert this height from Earth's polar radius to Astronomical Units.
Answer:
Given:
The length in earth's polar radius is:
Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0001
Formula:
The formula to convert length from earth's polar radius to astronomical units is:
Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 4.249243e-9 AU.
The length is 4.249243e-9 AU, in astronomical units.

Earth's polar radius
The Earth's polar radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the poles. One Earth's polar radius is approximately 6,356.8 kilometers or about 3,949.9 miles.
The polar radius is shorter than the equatorial radius due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which results from its rotation causing a bulge at the equator and a flattening at the poles.
The Earth's polar radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to accurately describe the Earth's shape and dimensions. It is essential for understanding Earth's gravitational field, polar regions, and measurements related to the planet's overall geometry.
Astronomical Units
An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure distances within our solar system. One astronomical unit is equivalent to approximately 149,597,870.7 kilometers or about 92,955,807.3 miles.
The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Astronomical units are used to express distances between celestial bodies within the solar system, such as the distances between planets and their orbits. They provide a convenient scale for describing and comparing distances in a way that is more manageable than using kilometers or miles.
