Convert ken to Earth's distance from sun
Enter a value below to convert ken [ken] to Earth's distance from sun [AU_dist]. Reverse conversion: Convert Earth's distance from sun to ken.
1 ken = 1.4160e-11 AU_dist. To convert ken to Earth's distance from sun, multiply the value by 1.4160e-11; to go the other way, divide by it (1 AU_dist = 70619663654.9 ken). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Ken: Definition and Use
The ken is a traditional Japanese unit of length, equal to six Japanese feet (shaku). Its length has varied over time, but it is now standardized at 1.818 meters.
History/Origin
The ken was traditionally used in Japanese architecture and land measurement.
Current Use
The ken is still used in traditional Japanese carpentry and architecture.
Earth's Distance From Sun: Definition and Use
The Earth's distance from the Sun varies throughout the year. The average distance is defined as one astronomical unit (AU), which is about 149.6 million kilometers.
History/Origin
The measurement of the Earth-Sun distance has a long history, with early estimates made by ancient Greek astronomers. Modern measurements are highly precise.
Current Use
The Earth-Sun distance is a fundamental unit in astronomy and is used to measure distances within the solar system.
