Convert Earth's polar radius to nautical league (int.)
Please provide values below to convert Earth's polar radius [R_p] to nautical league (int.) [NL (int.)], or Convert nautical league (int.) to Earth's polar radius.
1 R_p = 1144.12388409 NL (int.). To convert Earth's polar radius to nautical league (int.), multiply the value by 1144.12388409; to go the other way, divide by it (1 NL (int.) = 0.000874031225033 R_p). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Earth's Polar Radius
The Earth's polar radius is the distance from the center of the Earth to the North or South Pole, approximately 6,356.8 kilometers.
History/Origin
The fact that the Earth is an oblate spheroid, flattened at the poles, has been known since the 18th century. Modern measurements are made with high precision.
Current Use
The Earth's polar radius is a key parameter in geodesy and is used to define the Earth's shape and gravitational field.
Nautical League (Int.)
The international nautical league is a unit of length equal to three international nautical miles.
History/Origin
The international nautical league is based on the international nautical mile, which was defined as exactly 1,852 meters by international agreement in 1929.
Current Use
The nautical league is not a commonly used unit, with distances at sea typically being expressed in nautical miles.
