What is the Formula to convert Earth's polar radius to Rods (US survey)?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's polar radius to Rods (US survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 7.911572262538175e-7

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 rods (us survey), i.e., Length(Rods (US survey)).

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 Rods (US survey).

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 rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 7.911572262538175e-7

Substitution:

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

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 2.3 / 7.911572262538175e-7

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 2907133.9093

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2.3 Earth's polar radius is equal to 2907133.9093 rd.

The length is 2907133.9093 rd, in rods (us survey).

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 Rods (US survey).

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 rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = Length(Earth's polar radius) / 7.911572262538175e-7

Substitution:

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

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 0.0001 / 7.911572262538175e-7

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 126.39713

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.0001 Earth's polar radius is equal to 126.39713 rd.

The length is 126.39713 rd, in rods (us survey).

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.

Rods (US survey)

A rod (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying in the United States. One US survey rod is equivalent to exactly 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.

The US survey rod is defined as 16.5 feet, based on historical surveying practices and used for measuring and plotting land.

Rods (US survey) are used in land surveying, property measurement, and agricultural practices in the United States. The unit ensures consistency and accuracy in measuring shorter distances within these fields.
