What is a measurement of distance in space called?
Lightyears
What is the term for the greatest distance between two planets?
Two planets are at their greatest separation when they are on opposite sides of the Sun. When a planet is at its greatest separation from the Earth the planet is said to be at superior conjunction. It cannot be seen until it has separated out from the Sun, which usually takes a few weeks at least.
How is distance measured at cosmological scales?
Distance at galactic scales is usually measured in terms of lightyears. Distance at cosmological scales may also be put in terms of Hubble red-shift factors.
What is the unit measurement for speed?
The unit of measurement for speed is a fixed amount distance divided by a fixed amount of time. i.e.: Miles/Hour, Kilometers/Second, Meters/Hour, inches/day Currently in the US, milers/hour or "mph" is a standard for motor vehicles. It is kilometers/hour, or "kph" other countries. There might be some confusion with the above and the word "lightyears." 1 lightyear designates a distance, the distance light travels in 1 year through a vacuum. Some may confuse this as speed, when it is actually a measurement of distance.
Design a modular program that asks the user to enter a distance in kilometers and then converts that distance to miles The conversion formula is as follows Miles equals Kilometers x 0.6214?
Kilometer Converter Design a modular program that asks the user to enter a distance in kilometers, and then converts that distance to milies. The conversion formula is as follows: Miles= Kilometers X 0.6214
How many kilometers away is an object whos distance is 8 lightyears?
8 light years = 75685843780650 kilometers
What is distance of the begin of the Orion's belt and the end of it?
The stars at the two ends, Alnitak and Mintaka are at a distance of 387 and 380 parces (1262 and 1239 lightyears) respectively. Due to the relatively small angular separation, the distance between the stars is approx 7 parsecs = 23 lightyears.
What is spatial separation?
Two processes are separated by space or distance.
What is the position of zero force if a positive and negative charges are separated by a distance?
The position of zero force if positive and negative charges are separated by a distance would be at half of the separation distance.
How much is 20 lightyears in earth years?
Lightyear isn't about time, it's distance. One lightyear is ten trillion kilometers.
