How to use this Earth's polar radius to Kilometers Converter π€
Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Earth's polar radius to the units of Kilometers.
Enter the input Earth's polar radius value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Earth's polar radius into Kilometers in realtime β using the conversion formula, and displays under the Kilometers label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Kilometers value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Kilometers value using the Copy button.
To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
What is the Formula to convert Earth's polar radius to Kilometers?
The formula to convert given length from Earth's polar radius to Kilometers is:
Substitute the given value of length in earth's polar radius, i.e., Length(Earth's polar radius) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in kilometers, i.e., Length(Kilometers).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
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 Kilometers.
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 kilometers is:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0001 in the above formula.
Length(Kilometers) = 0.0001 / 0.0001573124242
Length(Kilometers) = 0.63568
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 0.63568 km.
The length is 0.63568 km, in kilometers.

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.
Kilometers
A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.
The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.
Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.
