How to Convert Chain to Sun's Radius
1 ch = 2.89159120310479e-08 R_s
Example: convert 15 ch to R_s:
15 ch = 15 × 2.89159120310479e-08 R_s = 4.33738680465718e-07 R_s
Chain to Sun's Radius Conversion Table
| chain | Sun's radius |

Chain
A chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet, or 22 yards.
History/Origin
The chain was developed by English surveyor Edmund Gunter in the early 17th century. It was designed to be a convenient length for surveying land.
Current Use
The chain is still used in some surveying applications and is the length of a cricket pitch.
Sun's Radius
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.
