Examples
1
Consider that the distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 150 gigameters. Convert this distance from gigameters to Megaparsecs.
Answer:
Given:
The length in gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = 150
Formula:
The formula to convert length from gigameters to megaparsecs is:
Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 150 in the above formula.
Length(Megaparsecs) = 150 / 30856775819144.656
Length(Megaparsecs) = 4.8612e-12
Final Answer:
Therefore, 150 Gm is equal to 4.8612e-12 Mpc.
The length is 4.8612e-12 Mpc, in megaparsecs.
2
Consider that the distance from Mars to Jupiter at their closest approach is about 550 gigameters. Convert this distance from gigameters to Megaparsecs.
Answer:
Given:
The length in gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = 550
Formula:
The formula to convert length from gigameters to megaparsecs is:
Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 550 in the above formula.
Length(Megaparsecs) = 550 / 30856775819144.656
Length(Megaparsecs) = 1.78243e-11
Final Answer:
Therefore, 550 Gm is equal to 1.78243e-11 Mpc.
The length is 1.78243e-11 Mpc, in megaparsecs.

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.
Megaparsecs
A megaparsec (Mpc) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure extremely large astronomical distances. One megaparsec is equivalent to one million parsecs, or approximately 3.262 million light-years or about 3.086 Γ 10^22 meters.
The megaparsec is defined as one million times the length of a parsec, where one parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
Megaparsecs are used to measure vast distances between galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and other large-scale structures in the universe. They provide a convenient scale for expressing the immense distances encountered in cosmology and extragalactic astronomy.
