Rope
A rope is an archaic unit of length, typically varying from 20 to 24 feet.
History/Origin
The length of a rope as a unit of measurement was not standardized and varied by location and trade.
Current Use
The rope as a unit of length is obsolete.
Earth's Equatorial Radius
The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the center of the Earth to the equator, approximately 6,378.1 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size and shape of the Earth have been a subject of study since ancient times. Modern measurements are made using satellite geodesy.
Current Use
The Earth's equatorial radius is a fundamental parameter in geodesy, geophysics, and astronomy. It is used in cartography and for defining the shape of the Earth.
