Convert Earth's equatorial radius to furlong (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert Earth's equatorial radius [R_e] to furlong (US survey) [fur (US)], or Convert furlong (US survey) to Earth's equatorial radius.
1 R_e = 31705.4613245 fur (US). To convert Earth's equatorial radius to furlong (US survey), multiply the value by 31705.4613245; to go the other way, divide by it (1 fur (US) = 3.15403075125e-05 R_e). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

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.
Furlong (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey furlong is a unit of length equal to one-eighth of a U.S. survey mile.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey furlong is based on the U.S. survey foot, which was slightly different from the international foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey furlong was used in land surveying in the United States.
