Convert ken to Earth's distance from sun
Please provide values below to convert ken [ken] to Earth's distance from sun [AU_dist], or 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.
Quick Reference
- 1 ken = 1.4160e-11 AU_dist
- 1 AU_dist = 70619663654.9 ken
- 10 ken = 1.4160e-10 AU_dist
- 100 ken = 1.41603619763e-09 AU_dist
How to Convert Ken to Earth's Distance From Sun
1 ken = 1.41603619763286e-11 AU_dist
Example: convert 15 ken to AU_dist:
15 ken = 15 × 1.41603619763286e-11 AU_dist = 2.12405429644929e-10 AU_dist

Ken
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
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.
