What is the Formula to convert Earth's polar radius to Nautical Miles (UK)?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's polar radius to Nautical Miles (UK) is:

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 0.0002915288809473773

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 nautical miles (uk), i.e., Length(Nautical Miles (UK)).

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 Nautical Miles (UK).

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 nautical miles (uk) is:

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 0.0002915288809473773

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's polar radius) = 2.3 in the above formula.

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 2.3 / 0.0002915288809473773

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 7889.4413

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2.3 Earth's polar radius is equal to 7889.4413 NM (UK).

The length is 7889.4413 NM (UK), in nautical miles (uk).

2

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 Nautical Miles (UK).

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 nautical miles (uk) is:

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 0.0002915288809473773

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0001 in the above formula.

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 0.0001 / 0.0002915288809473773

Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 0.34302

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 0.34302 NM (UK).

The length is 0.34302 NM (UK), in nautical miles (uk).

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.

Nautical Miles (UK)

A nautical mile (UK) is a unit of length used in maritime and aviation contexts. One nautical mile is equivalent to 1,852 meters or approximately 1.15078 miles.

The nautical mile is defined based on the Earth's circumference and is equal to one minute of latitude.

Nautical miles are used worldwide for navigation at sea and in the air. They are particularly important for charting courses and distances in maritime and aviation industries, ensuring consistency and accuracy in navigation.
