Distance through the earth at the equator?

Answer 1

Actually the answer given was not applicable to the question. The speed of rotation at Earth's axis depends on a number of factors, only partially touched by the previous answer. The Earth yields an equatorial speed of 465.1 m/s, 1,674.4 km/h or 1,040.4 mph. Some sources state that Earth's equatorial speed is slightly less, or 1,669.8 km/h. This is obtained by dividing Earth's equatorial circumference by 24 hours. However, the use of only one circumference unwittingly implies only one rotation in inertial space, so the corresponding time unit must be a sidereal hour.

Answer 2

The distance through the Earth at the equator is approximately 12,742 kilometers. This is the Earth's equatorial circumference, representing the longest distance one can travel around the planet following the equator.

Answer 3

The problem is where are you measuring. Different places have different elevations and the opposite location on the earth also might have a different elevation therefore changing the diameter. If you just want the distance at sea level it is 7,926.41 miles.

Answer 4

It is moving at very close to one thousand miles per hour at the equator.

Answer 5

Answer 6

It will be a little over 1000 miles per hour.

Answer 7

According to NASA scientists, the Earth's rotational speed at the Equator is 1036 miles per hour. The speed is increased at the Equator as opposed to the North and South Poles.

Answer 8

The velocity is v=rw= 6.36e6 x2 pi/24x3600= 462.5 meters/second or 925 nautical miles/hour at the equator.

Answer 9

Almost, but not quite, exactly one rotation per 24 hours.
