Earth’s Distance from the Sun
The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is known as an Astronomical Unit (AU).
It is approximately 149.6 million kilometers (about 93 million miles).
This distance varies slightly throughout the year because Earth’s orbit is elliptical—closest at perihelion (~147.1 million km) and farthest at aphelion (~152.1 million km).
The astronomical unit is a fundamental standard for measuring distances within our solar system.
Key facts:
Average distance ≈ 149.6 million km (1 AU)
Varies due to elliptical orbit
Basis for measuring planetary distances
Understanding Earth’s distance from the Sun is essential for studying seasons, climate, and orbital mechanics.
Decimeter
A decimeter (dm) is a unit of length in the metric system. It is equal to one-tenth of a meter, or 10 centimeters (1 dm = 0.1 m = 10 cm). While not as commonly used as centimeters or meters in everyday life, decimeters are still important in scientific and technical measurements. For example, a small book or a tablet might be about 2 to 3 decimeters long. The symbol for decimeter is "dm". Although it sits between the centimeter and meter in size, people often skip using decimeters and go directly from centimeters to meters. Still, it's a helpful unit when you need a mid-sized measurement.
