Rod

A rod is a unit of length used in land measurement and surveying. One rod is equivalent to 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.

The rod is defined as 16.5 feet, providing a measurement that is useful for various applications in land surveying, agriculture, and construction.

Rods are commonly used in tasks such as property measurement, plotting land, and agricultural practices. The unit provides a practical measurement for shorter distances and has historical significance in land surveying.

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.
