Convert chi(尺) to light-second

Learn how to convert 1 chi(尺) to light-second step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c h i (尺)) = x (l i g h t - s e c o n d)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c h i (尺)) = \frac{1.0}{3.0} (m e t e r) = \frac{1.0}{3.0} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (l i g h t - s e c o n d) = 299792458.0 (m e t e r) = 299792458.0 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c h i (尺)) = x (l i g h t - s e c o n d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 299792458.0 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.0} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 299792458.0 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0} \cdot (m) = x \times 299792458.0 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

\frac{1.0}{3.0} = x \times 299792458.0

Switch sides

x \times 299792458.0 = \frac{1.0}{3.0}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{299792458.0})

x \times 299792458.0 \times \frac{1.0}{299792458.0} = \frac{1.0}{3.0} \times \frac{1.0}{299792458.0}

Cancel

x \times 299792458.0 \times \frac{1.0}{299792458.0} = \frac{1.0 \times 1.0}{3.0 \times 299792458.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 299792458.0}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000011 \approx 1.1119 \times 10^{- 9}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c h i (尺)) \approx 1.1119 \times 10^{- 9} (l i g h t - s e c o n d)
