Convert Earth's equatorial radius to angstrom
Please provide values below to convert Earth's equatorial radius [R_e] to angstrom [A], or Convert angstrom to Earth's equatorial radius.
1 R_e = 6.3781e+16 A. To convert Earth's equatorial radius to angstrom, multiply the value by 6.3781e+16; to go the other way, divide by it (1 A = 1.5679e-17 R_e). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 R_e = 6.3781e+16 A
- 1 A = 1.5679e-17 R_e
- 10 R_e = 6.3781e+17 A
- 100 R_e = 6.3781e+18 A
How to Convert Earth's Equatorial Radius to Angstrom
1 R_e = 6.378137e+16 A
Example: convert 15 R_e to A:
15 R_e = 15 × 6.378137e+16 A = 9.5672055e+17 A

Earth's Equatorial Radius
The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the center of the Earth to the equator, approximately 6,378.1 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size and shape of the Earth have been a subject of study since ancient times. Modern measurements are made using satellite geodesy.
Current Use
The Earth's equatorial radius is a fundamental parameter in geodesy, geophysics, and astronomy. It is used in cartography and for defining the shape of the Earth.
Angstrom
The angstrom is a unit of length equal to 10⁻¹⁰ meters. It is not an SI unit.
History/Origin
In 1868, Swedish physicist Anders Jonas Ångström created a chart of the spectrum of sunlight in which he expressed the wavelengths in multiples of one ten-millionth of a millimeter. The unit was named after him.
Current Use
The angstrom is used to express the sizes of atoms, molecules, and the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the fields of chemistry, spectroscopy, and crystallography.
