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 Megaparsecs.
Answer:
Given:
The length in petameters is:
Length(Petameters) = 0.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from petameters to megaparsecs is:
Substitute given weight Length(Petameters) = 0.5 in the above formula.
Length(Megaparsecs) = 0.5 / 30856775.81914466
Length(Megaparsecs) = 1.62038964e-8
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.5 Pm is equal to 1.62038964e-8 Mpc.
The length is 1.62038964e-8 Mpc, in megaparsecs.
2
Consider that the distance from the Milky Way to the Andromeda Galaxy is approximately 2.5 petameters. Convert this distance from petameters to Megaparsecs.
Answer:
Given:
The length in petameters is:
Length(Petameters) = 2.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from petameters to megaparsecs is:
Substitute given weight Length(Petameters) = 2.5 in the above formula.
Length(Megaparsecs) = 2.5 / 30856775.81914466
Length(Megaparsecs) = 8.10194822e-8
Final Answer:
Therefore, 2.5 Pm is equal to 8.10194822e-8 Mpc.
The length is 8.10194822e-8 Mpc, in megaparsecs.

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.
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.
