Convert league to Earth's polar radius
Please provide values below to convert league [lea] to Earth's polar radius [R_p], or Convert Earth's polar radius to league.
1 lea = 0.000759512369233 R_p. To convert league to Earth's polar radius, multiply the value by 0.000759512369233; to go the other way, divide by it (1 R_p = 1316.6342518 lea). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

League
A league is a unit of length that was common in Europe and Latin America, but is no longer an official unit in any nation. It was the distance a person could walk in an hour.
History/Origin
The league varied in length from country to country and even within the same country over time. The most common definition was three miles.
Current Use
The league is no longer in common use but is found in historical texts and literature.
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.
