What is the Formula to convert Petameters to Kilometers?

The formula to convert given length from Petameters to Kilometers is:

Length(Kilometers) = Length(Petameters) × 1e+12

Substitute the given value of length in petameters, i.e., Length(Petameters) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in kilometers, i.e., Length(Kilometers).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that the distance from the Sun to the Oort Cloud is estimated to be around 0.5 petameters.
Convert this distance from petameters to Kilometers.

Answer:

Given:

The length in petameters is:

Length(Petameters) = 0.5

Formula:

The formula to convert length from petameters to kilometers is:

Length(Kilometers) = Length(Petameters) × 1e+12

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Petameters) = 0.5 in the above formula.

Length(Kilometers) = 0.5 × 1e+12

Length(Kilometers) = 500000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.5 Pm is equal to 500000000000 km.

The length is 500000000000 km, in kilometers.

2

Consider that the distance from the Milky Way to the Andromeda Galaxy is approximately 2.5 petameters.
Convert this distance from petameters to Kilometers.

Answer:

Given:

The length in petameters is:

Length(Petameters) = 2.5

Formula:

The formula to convert length from petameters to kilometers is:

Length(Kilometers) = Length(Petameters) × 1e+12

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Petameters) = 2.5 in the above formula.

Length(Kilometers) = 2.5 × 1e+12

Length(Kilometers) = 2500000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2.5 Pm is equal to 2500000000000 km.

The length is 2500000000000 km, in kilometers.

Petameters

A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One petameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192,237,333 miles.

The petameter is defined as one quadrillion meters, making it a measurement for extraordinarily large distances, often used in theoretical and cosmological contexts.

Petameters are used in fields such as astronomy and cosmology to describe distances on a scale larger than terameters. They provide a convenient way to express distances across immense regions of space, such as those encompassing multiple galaxies or even superclusters of galaxies.

Kilometers

A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.

The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.

Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.
