Examples
1
Consider that the average distance from Earth to the Sun is 1 astronomical unit (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 1
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to dekameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 1 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 1 / 6.684587122e-11
Length(Dekameters) = 14959787070.6008
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1 AU is equal to 14959787070.6008 dam.
The length is 14959787070.6008 dam, in dekameters.
2
Consider that the distance from Earth to Mars at its closest approach is approximately 0.5 astronomical units (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to dekameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 0.5 / 6.684587122e-11
Length(Dekameters) = 7479893535.3004
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.5 AU is equal to 7479893535.3004 dam.
The length is 7479893535.3004 dam, in dekameters.

Astronomical Units
An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure distances within our solar system. One astronomical unit is equivalent to approximately 149,597,870.7 kilometers or about 92,955,807.3 miles.
The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Astronomical units are used to express distances between celestial bodies within the solar system, such as the distances between planets and their orbits. They provide a convenient scale for describing and comparing distances in a way that is more manageable than using kilometers or miles.
Dekameters
A dekameter (dam) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One dekameter is equivalent to 10 meters or approximately 32.808 feet.
The dekameter is defined as ten meters, providing a convenient measurement for moderately large distances.
Dekameters are used in various fields to measure length and distance where a scale between meters and hectometers is appropriate. They are less commonly used than other metric units but can be useful in certain applications, such as land measurement and environmental science.
