What is the Formula to convert Earth's distance from sun to Earth's equatorial radius?
The formula to convert given length from Earth's distance from sun to Earth's equatorial radius is:
Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Earth's distance from sun) / 0.00004263475935743505
Substitute the given value of length in earth's distance from sun, i.e., Length(Earth's distance from sun) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in earth's equatorial radius, i.e., Length(Earth's equatorial radius).

Examples
1
Consider that Earth's distance from the Sun varies between 0.983 and 1.017 times the average distance. Convert this range from Earth's distance from the Sun to Earth's equatorial radius.
Answer:
Given:
The length in earth's distance from sun is:
Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.017
Formula:
The formula to convert length from earth's distance from sun to earth's equatorial radius is:
Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Earth's distance from sun) / 0.00004263475935743505
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.017 in the above formula.
Therefore, 1.017 earth's distance from sun is equal to 23853.776 earth's equatorial radius.
The length is 23853.776 earth's equatorial radius, in earth's equatorial radius.

Consider that a spacecraft is currently located at 1.5 times Earth's distance from the Sun. Convert this distance from Earth's distance from the Sun to Earth's equatorial radius.
Answer:
Given:
The length in earth's distance from sun is:
Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from earth's distance from sun to earth's equatorial radius is:
Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = Length(Earth's distance from sun) / 0.00004263475935743505
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.5 in the above formula.
The Earth's average distance from the Sun, known as an astronomical unit (AU), is approximately 149.6 million kilometers or about 93 million miles.
This distance represents the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun, which can vary slightly due to the elliptical shape of Earth's orbit. The Earth’s orbit is not a perfect circle but an ellipse, so the distance varies between about 147.1 million kilometers (91.4 million miles) at perihelion (closest approach) and about 152.1 million kilometers (94.5 million miles) at aphelion (farthest point).
The Earth's distance from the Sun is crucial for understanding solar radiation, climate patterns, and the length of seasons. It provides a baseline measurement used in astronomy and space science to define distances within our solar system and beyond.
Earth's equatorial radius
The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the equator. One Earth's equatorial radius is approximately 6,378.1 kilometers or about 3,963.2 miles.
The equatorial radius is the longest radius of the Earth due to its equatorial bulge, caused by the planet's rotation. This bulge results in a slightly larger radius at the equator compared to the polar radius.
The Earth's equatorial radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to define the Earth's shape and for accurate measurements of distances and areas on the Earth's surface. It provides a key parameter for understanding Earth's dimensions and its gravitational field.
