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 Gigameters.
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 gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = Length(Earth's distance from sun) / 0.006684491977999999
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.017 in the above formula.
Length(Gigameters) = 1.017 / 0.006684491977999999
Length(Gigameters) = 152.1432
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1.017 earth's distance from sun is equal to 152.1432 Gm.
The length is 152.1432 Gm, in gigameters.
2
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 Gigameters.
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 gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = Length(Earth's distance from sun) / 0.006684491977999999
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 1.5 in the above formula.
Length(Gigameters) = 1.5 / 0.006684491977999999
Length(Gigameters) = 224.4
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1.5 earth's distance from sun is equal to 224.4 Gm.
The length is 224.4 Gm, in gigameters.

Earth's distance from sun
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.
Gigameters
A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One gigameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192 miles.
The gigameter is defined as one billion meters, making it a measurement for extremely large distances, often used in astronomical contexts.
Gigameters are used in fields such as astronomy and space science to describe distances on a scale larger than megameters. They offer a convenient way to express the vast distances between celestial bodies and in large-scale cosmic phenomena.
