You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Earth's equatorial radius value is re-calculated, just like that.
  3. You may copy the resulting Earth's equatorial radius value using the Copy button.
  4. To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
  5. You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.

What is the Formula to convert Gigameters to Earth's equatorial radius?

The formula to convert given length from Gigameters to Earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Gigameters) / 0.006378160000453973

Substitute the given value of length in gigameters, i.e., Length(Gigameters) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in earth's equatorial radius, i.e., Length(Earth's equatorial radius).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that the distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 150 gigameters.
Convert this distance from gigameters to Earth's equatorial radius.

Answer:

Given:

The length in gigameters is:

Length(Gigameters) = 150

Formula:

The formula to convert length from gigameters to earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Gigameters) / 0.006378160000453973

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 150 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 150 / 0.006378160000453973

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 23517.7543

Final Answer:

Therefore, 150 Gm is equal to 23517.7543 earth's equatorial radius.

The length is 23517.7543 earth's equatorial radius, in earth's equatorial radius.

2

Consider that the distance from Mars to Jupiter at their closest approach is about 550 gigameters.
Convert this distance from gigameters to Earth's equatorial radius.

Answer:

Given:

The length in gigameters is:

Length(Gigameters) = 550

Formula:

The formula to convert length from gigameters to earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Gigameters) / 0.006378160000453973

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 550 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 550 / 0.006378160000453973

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 86231.7659

Final Answer:

Therefore, 550 Gm is equal to 86231.7659 earth's equatorial radius.

The length is 86231.7659 earth's equatorial radius, in earth's equatorial radius.

Gigameters

A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One gigameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192 miles.

The gigameter is defined as one billion meters, making it a measurement for extremely large distances, often used in astronomical contexts.

Gigameters are used in fields such as astronomy and space science to describe distances on a scale larger than megameters. They offer a convenient way to express the vast distances between celestial bodies and in large-scale cosmic phenomena.

Earth's equatorial radius

The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the equator. One Earth's equatorial radius is approximately 6,378.1 kilometers or about 3,963.2 miles.

The equatorial radius is the longest radius of the Earth due to its equatorial bulge, caused by the planet's rotation. This bulge results in a slightly larger radius at the equator compared to the polar radius.

The Earth's equatorial radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to define the Earth's shape and for accurate measurements of distances and areas on the Earth's surface. It provides a key parameter for understanding Earth's dimensions and its gravitational field.
