What is the Formula to convert Chains to Astronomical Units?

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

Length(Astronomical Units) = Length(Chains) / 7436464585.2842245

Substitute the given value of length in chains, i.e., Length(Chains) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in astronomical units, i.e., Length(Astronomical Units).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a farmer's field is 20 chains long.
Convert this distance from chains to Astronomical Units.

Answer:

Given:

The length in chains is:

Length(Chains) = 20

Formula:

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

Length(Astronomical Units) = Length(Chains) / 7436464585.2842245

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 20 in the above formula.

Length(Astronomical Units) = 20 / 7436464585.2842245

Length(Astronomical Units) = 2.68945e-9

Final Answer:

Therefore, 20 ch is equal to 2.68945e-9 AU.

The length is 2.68945e-9 AU, in astronomical units.

2

Consider that a surveyor measures a plot of land that is 15 chains in length.
Convert this distance from chains to Astronomical Units.

Answer:

Given:

The length in chains is:

Length(Chains) = 15

Formula:

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

Length(Astronomical Units) = Length(Chains) / 7436464585.2842245

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 15 in the above formula.

Length(Astronomical Units) = 15 / 7436464585.2842245

Length(Astronomical Units) = 2.0170875e-9

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 ch is equal to 2.0170875e-9 AU.

The length is 2.0170875e-9 AU, in astronomical units.

Chains

A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.

Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.

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.
