What is the circumference of the Earth at the equator in kilometers?
40,075 kilometers

At the equator, Earth measures about 40,075 kilometers around. A plane would need about 45 hours to fly this far. Our planet is a bit wider there than at the poles. The reason is the fast spin, which pushes it outward.
