One AU, or "astronomical unit", is the average distance between the Sun and the Earth, about 93 million miles.
One light year is the distance than light travels in one year. Light travels at about 186,000 miles per second. There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and 365.24 days in a year. Just multiply all those numbers together to get one light year in miles.
Just for comparison, one AU is equal to 500 light-SECONDS, or 8.3 light-MINUTES.
What else can I help you with?
Is an AU larger than a light year?
No. A light year is about 63,000 AU.
Which is longer a light year or an astronomical unit?
A light year is much bigger, an AU is only about 8 light minutes.1 light year = 63,240 AU
What is a light year in km and in AU?
1 light year = 9,460,730,472,580.8 km or 63,239.7263 Astronomical Units (AU).
Is a light year is much smaller than an AU?
No, a light year is actually much larger than an astronomical unit (AU). One light year is the distance that light travels in one year, roughly 9.46 trillion kilometers. One AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, about 150 million kilometers.
How many AU's in one light-year?
1 light-year is about 63,240 AUs.
What is 35.2 AU in light-years?
35.2 AU = roughly 0.000557 light-year (rounded)
How many AU are in 4.7Ly?
1 light year is approximately 63,241 AU. Therefore, 4.7 light years is about 297,116 AU.
What is the order of increasing length of astronomical unit parsec kilometer and light year?
kilometer, AU (astronomical unit), light year, parsec.
How many Au's are there in one light year?
About 63,000.
How many AU is one light year?
1 light year = 63 239.6717 Astronomical Units
What is the ratio of 1 au and 1 light year?
One AU is about 8.3 light-MINUTES. You can do the math from here.======================================In case you're unable or unwilling . . . . . it's about 63,200 . (rounded)
How fast will light travel in one year?
One light year is 65,000 AU's. One AU is the distance between Earth and the Sun, or 93 million miles. Try 65,000 times 93,000,000!!!!!
