How to use this Kilometers to Earth's polar radius Converter π€
Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Kilometers to the units of Earth's polar radius.
Enter the input Kilometers value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Kilometers into Earth's polar radius in realtime β using the conversion formula, and displays under the Earth's polar radius label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Earth's polar radius value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Earth's polar radius value using the Copy button.
To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
What is the Formula to convert Kilometers to Earth's polar radius?
The formula to convert given length from Kilometers to Earth's polar radius is:
Substitute the given value of length in kilometers, i.e., Length(Kilometers) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in earth's polar radius, i.e., Length(Earth's polar radius).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider that a high-end electric car has a maximum range of 400 kilometers on a single charge. Convert this range from kilometers to Earth's polar radius.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kilometers is:
Length(Kilometers) = 400
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kilometers to earth's polar radius is:
Therefore, 150 km is equal to 0.02359686363 Earth's polar radius.
The length is 0.02359686363 Earth's polar radius, in earth's polar radius.

Kilometers
A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.
The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.
Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.
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.
