What you are after is the diameter of the Earth, which varies because Earth is not a perfect sphere. At the poles it's 7889.80 miles and at the equator it's 7926.28 miles.

How many miles do you have to dig to get to the other side of earth?

It's about 7,900 miles to the Earth's core, but digging straight through is not feasible due to extreme heat and pressure. The deepest borehole, the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, reaches about 7.5 miles deep.


How many miles would you have to dig to the other side of the earth?

To dig to the other side of the Earth, you would need to go through the Earth's crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core, totaling about 7,917 miles (12,742 kilometers) from one surface point to the opposite point. However, practical digging is not feasible due to extreme temperatures and pressures within the Earth, as well as the presence of molten materials.


How many miles does it take from earth to Jupiter?

The minimum distance between Jupiter and Earth is 365 million miles (588 million km). Since one light year (the distance light travels in one year) is approximately 5,870,000,000,000 miles, the minimum distance between Jupiter and Earth is 0.0000621 light years.


What is the distance of Earth-Moon lagrange point L2 from Earth?

The Earth-Moon L2 point is about 33,000 miles (60,000 km) beyond the far side of the Moon. Adding this to the average distance from the Earth to the Moon of about 239,000 miles gives a total distance of about 272,000 miles from Earth to the Earth-Moon Lagrange L2 point.


What is the distance from the of Earth surface of the to the center?

This is the Earths radius. The Earth has a radius of 6371km on average. It is a slightly 'squashed sphere' though, due to its spin pushing out at the equator. Its polar radius is 6357km, while its radius at the equator is 6378km

How many miles mean the diameter of the earth?

If you went directly from where you are standing straight through the earth until you got to the other side, the distance that you would travel would be the diameter.


How many miles deep is earth?

You'd have to say about 3,950 miles. Even if you head straight toward the center of the Earth, if you go farther than 3,950 miles from where you started, you're closer than that to the surface on the other side.

What is the distance in miles from earth to mercury in scientific notation?

The distance between earth and mercury depends on whether mercury is on the same side of the sun or the opposite side!

How far above the Earth is the magnetosphere?

The magnetosphere varies depending on the Solar Wind and in what direction you take the measurement (i.e. towards or away from the Sun). As the earths magnetic field originates from the centre of the Earth all the measurements are taken from this point.On the side of the Earth facing the Sun the magnetosphere extends to approximately 70,000km (about 43500 miles). On the night side of the Earth it reaches 127,000km to 160,000km (79,000 miles to 99500 miles). The 'Tail' of the megontosphere however can reach well beyond 1,274,000km (792,000 miles).The reason for this huge difference is the Solar Wind. The Solar Wind is a constant stream of charged particles emanating from the sun which is constantly buffeting the magnetosphere into this long shape.
