What is distance from Hawaii to Australia?
Your question is one which cannot be answered with precision because Hawaii and Australia are not places with narrow longitude and latitude parameters. You might want to know how many miles it is to fly, for example, from Honolulu to Melbourne, or you could be trying to find out how far it is to sail from Hilo to Sydney.
If you are attempting just to have a general idea about how far apart Hawaii and Australia are, then it is safe to estimate this at 4700 standard miles (about 7600 kilometers) or 4100 nautical miles.
What steps did king kamehameha obtain control of the big Island?
He first united with a cousin on the island of Hawai'i (aka 'the big island') and used their forces to take down smaller ali'i (royalty) so on and so on until they together ruled over the island of Hawai'i, then Kamehameha killed his cousin and ruled over the island alone. After having acquired the warriors of the ali'i he killed, he set out to take over the other islands. The biggest family to conquer was the Ahumanu or Kaahumanu ali'i who I believe ruled over Maui, Moloka'i, 'O'ahu and Kaua'i and they were a huge family who had many warriors. To do this, he bartered with British who he had allowed to take anchor off of his island. He traded food and sex with young women of his island for cannons. Once he acquired the cannons, he went to 'O'ahu and cornered Kaahumanu's warriors who vastly outnumbered kamehameha's warriors but didn't have modern weaponry, only fighting with traditional hawaiian weapons of spears, clubs etc., into a valley called Nu'uanu and had his cannons positioned up in the Ko'olau. He fired his cannons into the valley killing many of kaahumanu's warriors who were unable to fight off cannon fire, and he also killed off many of his own warriors in doing so. Once kaahumanu's warriors numbers were small enough, he sent in his warriors and they pushed them back into the valley which had a cliff at the end, the surviving warriors fell to their deaths. After taking out the Kaahumanu on "O'ahu, he went after Kaua'i, maui etc. where their forces were smaller. Once he took out everyone he ruled over the island of Hawai'i, 'O'ahu, Kaua'i, Moloka'i and Maui. he was untouchable by then, his numbers were too high for anyone to fight against.
Some say he united the Hawaiian islands, I doubt anyone who lived at that time would agree. In reality, he was ruthless in acquiring his power and showed no love to the native Hawaiians that he ruled over. He was power hungry and would stop at nothing to get that power, including killing his family and trading sex with young girls to get modern weapons that other ali'i would not be able to fight back against.
