Earth's polar radius
Definition: The Earth's polar radius is a unit of length equal to approximately 6,356.8 kilometers.
Historyandorigin: It is based on measurements of the Earth's shape.
CurrentUse: It is used in geophysics and astronomy.
funfact: The Earth's polar radius is slightly smaller than its equatorial radius due to the Earth's rotation.
kilometer [km]
Definition: A kilometer is a unit of length equal to 1,000 meters.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the meter, the kilometer was introduced in the late 18th century as part of the metric system.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used to measure long distances, such as between cities.
funfact: The prefix 'kilo-' comes from the Greek word 'khilioi,' meaning 'thousand.'

How to Convert Earth's polar radius to kilometer
1 Earth's polar radius = 6356.777 kilometer [km]
1 kilometer [km] = 0.0001573124 Earth's polar radius
we use cross multiplication method
Earth's polar radius → kilometer [km]
1 → 6356.777
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*6356.777=1*x
by simplifying
x=9535.1655
