What is the Formula to convert Earth's polar radius to Petameters?
The formula to convert given length from Earth's polar radius to Petameters 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 petameters, i.e., Length(Petameters).
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 Petameters.
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 petameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0001 in the above formula.
Length(Petameters) = 0.0001 / 157312424.2
Length(Petameters) = 6.357e-13
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 6.357e-13 Pm.
The length is 6.357e-13 Pm, in petameters.

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.
Petameters
A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One petameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192,237,333 miles.
The petameter is defined as one quadrillion meters, making it a measurement for extraordinarily large distances, often used in theoretical and cosmological contexts.
Petameters are used in fields such as astronomy and cosmology to describe distances on a scale larger than terameters. They provide a convenient way to express distances across immense regions of space, such as those encompassing multiple galaxies or even superclusters of galaxies.
