A light-year is a unit of distance, not a unit of time.
hi i need help with my homework
Traveling 39 light years would take 39 years at the speed of light.
Traveling 40 light years would take 40 years at the speed of light.
Traveling 40 light years would take 40 years at the speed of light.
Light years
The Milky Way is about 100,000 light years in diameter; it would take light about 100,000 years to cover the whole distance.
It really depends on your speed. If you were traveling at the speed of light, it would take 600 years. 600 light years equals 3,527,175,223,910,165 miles. So divide that by the speed you would be traveling to get the length of time it would take you.
1 parsec is approximately equal to 3.26 light years. Therefore, to convert 186,000 light years to parsecs, you would divide by 3.26. This would give you approximately 57,067 parsecs in 186,000 light years.
Well, it takes 2,700 years for light to travel that far. Anything travelling at half light-speed would take 5,400 years. At 1/4 light-speed, it would take 10,800 years.
A light year is a measure of distance not time. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. So for light to travel 6,300 light years, would take 6,300 years
If you are asking how long it would take to travel the distance of 123.23 light years, then that would depend on how fast you are traveling. Because a light year is a measure of distance not time.
You would have to be travelling faster than the speed of light in order to do this. And, theoretically speaking, this would be impossible to do.However, if you were possible to travel faster than the speed of light, you would need to be travelling 1.25x the speed of light (which is about 3.75 x 108 m/s2).
