What is the Formula to convert Astronomical Units to Megameters?
The formula to convert given length from Astronomical Units to Megameters is:
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 megameters, i.e., Length(Megameters).
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 Megameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 1
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to megameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 1 in the above formula.
Length(Megameters) = 1 / 0.000006684587122
Length(Megameters) = 149597.8707
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1 AU is equal to 149597.8707 Mm.
The length is 149597.8707 Mm, in megameters.
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 Megameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to megameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5 in the above formula.
Length(Megameters) = 0.5 / 0.000006684587122
Length(Megameters) = 74798.9354
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.5 AU is equal to 74798.9354 Mm.
The length is 74798.9354 Mm, in megameters.

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.
Megameters
A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One megameter is equivalent to 1,000,000 meters or approximately 621.371 miles.
The megameter is defined as one million meters, providing a measurement for very large distances, such as those encountered in planetary and astronomical contexts.
Megameters are used in fields such as astronomy and planetary science to describe distances on a scale larger than kilometers but smaller than astronomical units.
