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.

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.
