To solve for the radius of the Earth in centimetres, we know the following information:
1 km = 1000 m
1 m = 100 cm
Therefore,
radius = 6,380 km * (1000 m / km) * (100 cm / m)
radius = 638 x 10^6 cm
The radius of the earth which is 6,380 kilometers converted to centimeters gives; 638 x 10⁶ cm
To convert the radius of the Earth from kilometers to centimeters, we will use the conversion rate as;
1 km = 100,000 cm
Thus,
Radius of 6380 kilometers will give us;
Radius = 6380 × 100000
Radius = 638 x 10⁶ cm
