Dekameters

A dekameter (dam) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One dekameter is equivalent to 10 meters or approximately 32.808 feet.

The dekameter is defined as ten meters, providing a convenient measurement for moderately large distances.

Dekameters are used in various fields to measure length and distance where a scale between meters and hectometers is appropriate. They are less commonly used than other metric units but can be useful in certain applications, such as land measurement and environmental science.

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.
