A "foot-day" might be the distance you can walk in a day.
A "car-week" might be the distance you can drive in a week.
A "light-year" is the distance light travels in a year. (Through vacuum.)
"light-year"
A light-year is a measure of distance that a photon of light will travel in one year .
The distance light travels in a year is called light-year
A light year is a measure of distance, not time. A light year is the distance that light will travel in one year. One light second is 186,000 miles. A light year is a measure of distance, not time. A light year is the distance that light will travel in one year. One light second is 186,000 miles.
A light year is how far light will travel in a vacuum in one single year(Julian) The Value of a light year is, 9,460,730,472,580.8Km.
A light-year is the distance light can travel in one year. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Multiply that by 3600 seconds in an hour and then by 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year and you will get the distance in one light-year.A light year is defined as 9,460,730,472,580,800 meters exactly, derivedfrom the distance that light travels in vacuum in one Julian year.
The light-year is the distance light travels in a year. Since this sometimes causes confusion, please note that a light-year is a unit of distance; NOT a unit of time. A light-year is approximately 9.5 x 1012 kilometers. (A light-year is defined to be exactly 9,460,730,472,580,800 metres.)
No. A light year is a unit of distance, not time. It is the distance light travels in a year.
The question should be How Long is a light year (in standard form) as a light year is the DISTANCE that light will travel in one year No...I'm not sure what a light year would be in a leap year.
No. A light-year is a measurement. A light year is a distance measurement based on how far light travels in a year.
No. A light year is a measure of distance, not time. It is how far light travels in a year.
No. A light year is a measure of distance. It is the distance light travels in a year.
