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.
Arpent
An arpent is a unit of length and a unit of area. As a unit of length, it is approximately 192 feet.
History/Origin
The arpent was a pre-metric French unit of measurement. It was used in France and its North American colonies, including parts of the United States.
Current Use
The arpent is an obsolete unit, but it may still be found in old land records in some parts of North America.
