Earths diameters is a straight line through the middle of the Earth. That is how the size of planets is measured.
7926 miles and 12760 km. Thats Pretty long.
The angular distance north or south of the earths equator, measured in degrees, along a meridian, as on the map or globe.
the diameter of Saturn is 74,900 miles (120,540 kilometers).
The diameter is measured using a tape measure.
The inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, vary in size. Mercury is the smallest, with a diameter of about 4,879 kilometers, while Earth is the largest, with a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers. Venus falls in between Mercury and Earth, with a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers. Mars is the second smallest, with a diameter of about 6,779 kilometers.
The equatorial diameter is greater than the polar diameter. The distance is about 30 miles. The equatorial diameter is about 7927 miles. The polar diameter is about 7900 miles.
A diameter is a linear measurement that needs units. However, assuming that the units are kilometers, the Earth is about 12,700 kilometers in diameter. Venus is a little smaller at 12,100 kilometres.
Earth's equatorial diameter = 7,926 milesAverage distance from the sun = 93,000,000 milesRatio of (distance to the sun) / (diameter) = (93,000,000 / 7,926)= 11,733You'd have to stack 11,733 earths belly-to-belly in order to reach from the sun to where we are.
Earths diameter is around 12,742 km on average. 12,756 km measured through the equator, 12,714 km measured from pole to pole. Earths mass is 5.9736 x 10 24 kg.
7926 miles and 12760 km. Thats Pretty long.
Mercury's diameter (at the equator) = 4880km or 0.3825 x Earths diameter Venus' diameter = 12,104km or 0.9488 x Earths Earth's diameter = 12,756km Mars' diameter = 6794km or 0.5323 x Earths Jupiter's diameter = 142,984km or 11.21 x Earths Saturn's diameter = 120,534km or 9.45 x Earths Uranus' diameter = 51,114km or 4.01 x Earths Neptune's diameter = 49,532km or 3.88 x Earths (Pluto's diameter = 2306km or 0.18 x Earths) I included Pluto on the end there, its not classed as a planet any more though, but a dwarf planet.
The diameter of the earth at the equator is 12,756 kilometers. The earth slightly bulges at the equator slightly elongating the distance.
They measured the distance the wheel traveled on the ground which would be the same as the circumference of the wheel. If they then measured the diameter of the wheel and divided the circumference by the diameter they would have a value for pi.
The angular distance north or south of the earths equator, measured in degrees, along a meridian, as on the map or globe.
the diameter of Saturn is 74,900 miles (120,540 kilometers).
It's called the "circumference" of the circle. It's equal to (pi) times (the circle's diameter).
The circumference is the distance around a circle and it is measured by:- Circumference of a circle = 2*pi*radius or pi*diameter
