How to use this Astronomical Units to Kiloparsecs Converter 🤔

Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Astronomical Units to the units of Kiloparsecs.

1. Enter the input Astronomical Units value in the text field.
2. The calculator converts the given Astronomical Units into Kiloparsecs in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Kiloparsecs label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Kiloparsecs value is re-calculated, just like that.
3. You may copy the resulting Kiloparsecs value using the Copy button.
4. To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
5. You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.

What is the Formula to convert Astronomical Units to Kiloparsecs?

The formula to convert given length from Astronomical Units to Kiloparsecs is:

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = Length_{(Astronomical Units)} / 206264806.26709536

Substitute the given value of length in astronomical units, i.e., Length_{(Astronomical Units)} in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in kiloparsecs, i.e., Length_{(Kiloparsecs)}.

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that the average distance from Earth to the Sun is 1 astronomical unit (AU).
Convert this distance from astronomical units to Kiloparsecs.

Answer:

Given:

The length in astronomical units is:

Length_{(Astronomical Units)} = 1

Formula:

The formula to convert length from astronomical units to kiloparsecs is:

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = Length_{(Astronomical Units)} / 206264806.26709536

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Astronomical Units)} = 1 in the above formula.

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = 1 / 206264806.26709536

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = 4.8481368e-9

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1 AU is equal to 4.8481368e-9 kpc.

The length is 4.8481368e-9 kpc, in kiloparsecs.

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 Kiloparsecs.

Answer:

Given:

The length in astronomical units is:

Length_{(Astronomical Units)} = 0.5

Formula:

The formula to convert length from astronomical units to kiloparsecs is:

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = Length_{(Astronomical Units)} / 206264806.26709536

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Astronomical Units)} = 0.5 in the above formula.

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = 0.5 / 206264806.26709536

Length_{(Kiloparsecs)} = 2.4240684e-9

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.5 AU is equal to 2.4240684e-9 kpc.

The length is 2.4240684e-9 kpc, in kiloparsecs.

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.

Kiloparsecs

A kiloparsec (kpc) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure astronomical distances. One kiloparsec is equivalent to 3,262 light-years or approximately 3.086 × 10^16 meters.

The kiloparsec is defined as one thousand parsecs, where one parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.

Kiloparsecs are used to measure large distances between celestial objects, such as the size of galaxies or the distance between galactic structures. They provide a convenient scale for expressing vast distances in the universe.

  "y_long_desc": "A kiloparsec (kpc) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure astronomical distances. One kiloparsec is equivalent to 3,262 light-years or approximately 3.086 × 10^16 meters. </p><p>The kiloparsec is defined as one thousand parsecs, where one parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.</p><p>Kiloparsecs are used to measure large distances between celestial objects, such as the size of galaxies or the distance between galactic structures. They provide a convenient scale for expressing vast distances in the universe.",
  "x_long_desc": "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. </p><p>The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun.</p><p>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."
