Which unit of measurement represents the distance light travels in one year light-year or parsec?
"light-year"
who can anser me The distance light travels in a year is called?
The distance light travels in a year is called light-year
How long is a light year what does a light year describe?
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.
Are light-years stars?
No. A light-year is a measurement. A light year is a distance measurement based on how far light travels in a year.
How many normal years are there in one light year?
Only one. Because Light year is a messure of distance not of time. Light year is the distance travelled by light in one year.
How long does it take to travel 1 light year?
It will take 1 year, as soon as you and Albert work out how to travel at the speed of light. ;)
Who is the scientist use the light year to measure the speed of light?
It doesn't work that way. The light-year is not used to measure the speed of light. It works the other way round: First, the speed of light is determined through other methods, then the distance called a light-year is calculated based on that measurements.
How was a light year discovered?
The light year was not discovered. It was made up, by people who kept coming up with distances like [ 25,866,280,000,000 miles ] in their work, and soon realized that they were going to need something bigger than a mile, so they invented the light-year.

Do you need a timing light to set your 1996 suburban?
NO. A timing light will not work on that engine. You must have an obdII engine scanner to set the timing on that year.

Does a calendar year equal a light year?
No. A light year is a unit of distance, not time. It is the distance light travels in a year.
What is the definition of the light 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.)

How much is 1 light year in standard form?
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.
