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

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

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Sun's radius) / 214.94252872600276

Substitute the given value of length in sun's radius, i.e., Length(Sun's 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 sunspot is observed at a distance of 0.2 times the Sun's radius from the solar center.
Convert this distance from the Sun's radius to Earth's distance from sun.

Answer:

Given:

The length in sun's radius is:

Length(Sun's radius) = 0.2

Formula:

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

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Sun's radius) / 214.94252872600276

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Sun's radius) = 0.2 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 0.2 / 214.94252872600276

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 0.0009304812834641

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.2 sun's radius is equal to 0.0009304812834641 earth's distance from sun.

The length is 0.0009304812834641 earth's distance from sun, in earth's distance from sun.

2

Consider that the solar corona extends to a distance of 2.5 times the Sun's radius.
Convert this distance from the Sun's radius to Earth's distance from sun.

Answer:

Given:

The length in sun's radius is:

Length(Sun's radius) = 2.5

Formula:

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

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = Length(Sun's radius) / 214.94252872600276

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Sun's radius) = 2.5 in the above formula.

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 2.5 / 214.94252872600276

Length(Earth's distance from sun) = 0.0116310160433018

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2.5 sun's radius is equal to 0.0116310160433018 earth's distance from sun.

The length is 0.0116310160433018 earth's distance from sun, in earth's distance from sun.

Sun's radius

The radius of the Sun is approximately 696,340 kilometers or about 432,690 miles.

This radius represents the distance from the Sun's center to its surface, which is composed of the photosphere, the layer of the Sun that emits light. The Sun is not a perfect sphere but is slightly oblate due to its rotation.

The Sun's radius is fundamental for understanding its size, volume, and the scale of solar phenomena. It is used in astrophysics and solar studies to model the Sun's structure, energy output, and its influence on the solar system.

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.
