If you are asking how far the Moon is from the Earth, the easy answer is about 250,000 miles or 400,000 kilometers. If you want to know how long is the orbit of the Moon (the length of its journey around the Earth each month) then the answer is roughly 1,570,000 miles or 2,528,000 kilometers.
Let's do a little math. Earth is 93 million miles (on average) from the sun. The circumference of a circle is 2pi(r), or in this case, 584,000,000 miles. 584 million miles. It takes the earth 365 days to circumnavigate the sun. That is 1.6 million miles per day, or 67,000 miles per hour. Does it feel like you're wheeling 67,000 miles per hour around the sun?
Every complete circle is 360o.
The height of typical pencil is about 15cm. Laid end to end you would need 66,791,933 to circle the Earth at the equator.
360 degrees of longitude circle the Earth.
-- Since every point on a line of latitude has the same latitude, the line has no thickness. -- Its length depends on its latitude. -- The line at zero latitude, known as the 'equator', is a great circle and so its length is the circumference of the Earth ... about 24,900 miles. -- Every other line of latitude is a small circle. Its length is 24,900 miles times the cosine of the latitude which it marks. -- The distance between any latitude and the one that's 1° north or south of it is about 111.1 kilometers (69 miles).
No. Any great circle on the earth has a circumference of about 24,000 miles. The circumference of the Arctic Circle (and the Antarctic circle too) is about 9,945 miles. Imagine circles around the North Pole. The closer to the pole the circle is, the smaller it is. If you were right there at the North Pole, you could walk a 10-foot circle around it. The Arctic Circle is a circle around the pole, but about 1,570 miles south of it. The only circle around the pole that's a great circle is the Equator.
The Prime Meridian and the meridian of 180° longitude combine to form a great circle on the Earth. Each of them alone is a semi-circle.
Each meridian is a half-circle from the north pole to the south pole of the earth.

The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are each about 1,620 miles from the Equator.The Arctic Circle and the Antarctic Circle are each about 4,590 miles from the Equator.The Tropic of Capricorn is about 6,210 miles from the Arctic Circle.
Every complete circle is 360o.
The Earth travels about 92 million miles in its orbit around the sun each day.
2654950 is not correct. The actual distance traveling along the equator would be 24,906 miles.
No. Within the polar circle. People don't usually use prepositions when they google, didn't you know that? The answer is 8 million square miles out of 200 million for the whole earth, so 4%.
The Prime Meridian and the meridian of 180° longitude combine to forma great circle on the Earth. Each of them alone is a semi-circle.Every parallel of latitude also circles the Earth completely, but among those,only the equator is a great circle.
The height of typical pencil is about 15cm. Laid end to end you would need 66,791,933 to circle the Earth at the equator.
