Convert link to Sun's radius
Enter a value below to convert link [li] to Sun's radius [R_s]. Reverse conversion: Convert Sun's radius to link.
1 li = 2.8916e-10 R_s. To convert link to Sun's radius, multiply the value by 2.8916e-10; to go the other way, divide by it (1 R_s = 3458303507.52 li). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Link: Definition and Use
A link, specifically Gunter's link, is a unit of length equal to 7.92 inches, or 1/100 of a chain.
History/Origin
The link is part of Gunter's chain, a surveying tool invented by Edmund Gunter in the 17th century.
Current Use
The link is an obsolete unit of measurement, but may be found in old land surveys.
Sun's Radius: Definition and Use
The Sun's radius is the distance from the center of the Sun to its surface, approximately 695,700 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size of the Sun has been measured with increasing accuracy over centuries of astronomical observation.
Current Use
The Sun's radius is a fundamental property of the Sun and is used in astrophysics to model its structure and evolution.
