What is the Formula to convert Earth's equatorial radius to Earth's distance from sun?

The formula to convert given length from Earth's equatorial radius to Earth's distance from sun is:

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 23455.0403255791

Substitute the given value of length in earth's equatorial radius, i.e., Length(Earth's equatorial radius) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in earth's distance from sun, i.e., Length(Earth's distance from sun).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a geostationary satellite orbits at a distance equal to 6.6 times Earth's equatorial radius.
Convert this distance from Earth's equatorial radius to Earth's distance from sun.

Answer:

Given:

The length in earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 6.6

Formula:

The formula to convert length from earth's equatorial radius to earth's distance from sun is:

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 23455.0403255791

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 6.6 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 6.6 / 23455.0403255791

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 0.0002813894117591

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6.6 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 0.0002813894117591 earth's distance from sun.

The length is 0.0002813894117591 earth's distance from sun, in earth's distance from sun.

2

Consider that a mountain's height is measured as 0.000156 times Earth's equatorial radius.
Convert this height from Earth's equatorial radius to Earth's distance from sun.

Answer:

Given:

The length in earth's equatorial radius is:

Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 0.000156

Formula:

The formula to convert length from earth's equatorial radius to earth's distance from sun is:

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Earth's equatorial radius) / 23455.0403255791

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Earth's equatorial radius) = 0.000156 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 0.000156 / 23455.0403255791

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 6.6510225e-9

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.000156 earth's equatorial radius is equal to 6.6510225e-9 earth's distance from sun.

The length is 6.6510225e-9 earth's distance from sun, in earth's distance from sun.

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.

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.
