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.

Rod

A rod is a unit of length used in land measurement and surveying. One rod is equivalent to 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.

The rod is defined as 16.5 feet, providing a measurement that is useful for various applications in land surveying, agriculture, and construction.

Rods are commonly used in tasks such as property measurement, plotting land, and agricultural practices. The unit provides a practical measurement for shorter distances and has historical significance in land surveying.
