Compare the distance between two stars and the distance between two planets?
The distance between stars are much greater than distances between objects in our solar system
What is a cosmic distance?
A distance in space, between stars etc.
What units are for distance between stars?
The correct unit to describe the distance between stars is the "light year", the distance a photon of light would travel (through a vacuum) in a year.
What is the distance between star?
The distance between stars can be anything from light minutes to billions of light years.
Are the stars measured in light years?
Stars are not measured in light years. The distance between them is.
What do astromoners measure distance in between stars with?
light years
What is the distance between (-3,6),(-3,-2)?
The distance between stars can be anything from light minutes to billions of light years.
What unit of distance would you use to measure the distance between two stars?
Light Years.
Why is using a light year useful for measuring stars?
Because the distance between stars is so great.
How does the distance between planets compare to the distance of stars?
The distance between stars is a couple of order of magnitudes higher than the distance between planets.To put this into perspective, the distance between earth and the sun is 8 light-minutes and the distance between other planets doesn't go further than a few light-hours. On the other hand, the distance between our sun and the nearest star (alpha centauri) is 4.4 light-years. This means that this distance is about 38544 larger than the distance between planets.Beyond that, the distance between stars can be extremely high: a star on the other side of our galaxy will be about 100000 light-years away from us. The distance will keep rising as we move on to different galaxies, then different galaxy clusters, the super clusters and then, finally, the width of the universe.
What is used to measure distance between stars?
Light year or astronomical units
What is it called when you measure distance between stars?
usually the space is measured in light years
