How to use this Earth's polar radius to Megameters Converter π€
Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Earth's polar radius to the units of Megameters.
Enter the input Earth's polar radius value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Earth's polar radius into Megameters in realtime β using the conversion formula, and displays under the Megameters label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Megameters value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Megameters 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 Megameters?
The formula to convert given length from Earth's polar radius to Megameters 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 megameters, i.e., Length(Megameters).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples

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 Megameters.
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 megameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0001 in the above formula.
Length(Megameters) = 0.0001 / 0.1573124242
Length(Megameters) = 0.0006356777000198
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 0.0006356777000198 Mm.
The length is 0.0006356777000198 Mm, in megameters.

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.
Megameters
A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One megameter is equivalent to 1,000,000 meters or approximately 621.371 miles.
The megameter is defined as one million meters, providing a measurement for very large distances, such as those encountered in planetary and astronomical contexts.
Megameters are used in fields such as astronomy and planetary science to describe distances on a scale larger than kilometers but smaller than astronomical units.
