Fathoms (US survey) A fathom (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in maritime contexts in the United States to measure water depth. One US survey fathom is equivalent to exactly 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.
The US survey fathom is defined as 6 feet, consistent with historical maritime measurement practices and used for depth soundings and underwater measurements.
Fathoms (US survey) are utilized in navigation, fishing, and marine activities in the United States to describe water depth. The unit provides a practical measurement for underwater distances and ensures consistency in maritime practices.
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.
