Is there an expression out there for determining the distance around
the globe, at let's say the tropic of cancer and the tropic of capricorn? I know that the radius of the earth is 6371 - is there perhaps an expression which relates the circle distance at the tropic of cancer/capricorn to the radius or even perhaps the GCD? I am attempting to determine how the circle distances change as you move from the equator to either of the poles. thanks |
