Question

Calculate the distance in kilometres between Tropic of Cancer

Answer 1

First, the tropics are at 23.5° of latitude. And remembering that the original definition of meter is "A ten-millionth of an Earth's quadrant", it means the perimeter of Earth is 40,000 km, that consist on 360° of latitude, then:

1∘=40,000km360∘=111.11km/∘

Now, the distance between the tropics in a first approximation would be

Distance=2×23.5∘×111.1km/∘=5221.7km

Answer 2

Answer:

110.567 KM

it will be from equator of earth
