Mean distance between sun or star and earth or planet Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Mean Distance between Sun and Planet = (((Radius of the Sun^2)*[Stefan-BoltZ]*(Effective Surface Temperature^4))/Total Solar Irradiance)^0.5
L = (((r^2)*[Stefan-BoltZ]*(T_s^4))/G_s)^0.5
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

[Stefan-BoltZ] - Stefan-Boltzmann Constant Value Taken As 5.670367E-8

Variables Used

Mean Distance between Sun and Planet - (Measured in Meter) - Mean distance between sun and planet is the mean distance between sun/star and earth/planet.
Radius of the Sun - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of the sun is the radius of the sun/star.
Effective Surface Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Effective surface temperature is the surface temperature of the sun/star.
Total Solar Irradiance - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - Total solar irradiance or solar constant is the solar energy reaching the earth’s/planet's atmosphere.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of the Sun: 695000000 Meter --> 695000000 Meter No Conversion Required
Effective Surface Temperature: 5780 Kelvin --> 5780 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Total Solar Irradiance: 1373 Watt per Square Meter --> 1373 Watt per Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = (((r^2)*[Stefan-BoltZ]*(T_s^4))/G_s)^0.5 --> (((695000000^2)*[Stefan-BoltZ]*(5780^4))/1373)^0.5

Evaluating ... ...

L = 149214420641.695

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

149214420641.695 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

149214420641.695 ≈ 1.5E+11 Meter <-- Mean Distance between Sun and Planet
