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.

Hands

A hand is a unit of length used primarily to measure the height of horses. One hand is equivalent to 4 inches or approximately 0.1016 meters.

The hand is defined as 4 inches, providing a standardized measurement for assessing horse height, ensuring consistency across various contexts and practices.

Hands are used in the equestrian industry to measure the height of horses, from the ground to the highest point of the withers. The unit offers a convenient and traditional method for expressing horse height and remains in use in equestrian competitions and breed standards.
