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

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

Length(Earth's polar radius) = Length(Rods (US survey)) / 1263971.2648964443

Substitute the given value of length in rods (us survey), i.e., Length(Rods (US survey)) 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 surveyor records a property boundary as 30 rods (US survey) long.
Convert this distance from rods (US survey) to Earth's polar radius.

Answer:

Given:

The length in rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rods (us survey) to earth's polar radius is:

Length(Earth's polar radius) = Length(Rods (US survey)) / 1263971.2648964443

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Rods (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's polar radius) = 30 / 1263971.2648964443

Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0000237347167876

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 rd is equal to 0.0000237347167876 Earth's polar radius.

The length is 0.0000237347167876 Earth's polar radius, in earth's polar radius.

2

Consider that a farm's perimeter is measured at 50 rods (US survey).
Convert this distance from rods (US survey) to Earth's polar radius.

Answer:

Given:

The length in rods (us survey) is:

Length(Rods (US survey)) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rods (us survey) to earth's polar radius is:

Length(Earth's polar radius) = Length(Rods (US survey)) / 1263971.2648964443

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Rods (US survey)) = 50 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's polar radius) = 50 / 1263971.2648964443

Length(Earth's polar radius) = 0.0000395578613127

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 rd is equal to 0.0000395578613127 Earth's polar radius.

The length is 0.0000395578613127 Earth's polar radius, in earth's polar radius.

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.

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.
