Why are light years used to measure astronomical distance?
Because measuring in miles or kilometres would yield HUGE numbers ! A light year is defined as the distance light takes to travel in a calendar year. Therefore, since light travels at 186282 miles a second - this distance is 5,874,589,152,000 miles !
How much time to travel moon?
It takes about 3 days to travel to the moon using current spacecraft technology.
How long in lightyears would it take to travel to Eris the dwarf planet?
A light year is a unit of space, not time. It is the distance light travels in a year. Eris is far less than a light year away.
How long would it take to travel to Australia from London at the speed of light?
It would take roughly 0.06 seconds if you find it using the equation S=Vt xD(time = Distance / speed)
Why there is no sound year like light year?
The velocity of light in vacuum is a universal constant. A light year is the distance travelled at that velocity in one year. To define a sound year it would be necessary to also specify the precise characteristics of material it is being propagated through. A vacuum won't do, since sound doesn't travel through a vacuum.
How do people travel to space?
Using rockets and other types of spacecraft.
Why can gas not be extracted using conventional methods?
Gas is extracted using conventional methods.
How long would it take nasa to travel 600 light years?
With current technology, it would take NASA thousands of years to travel 600 light years using conventional spacecraft. The vast distance and limitations of our current propulsion systems make such a journey unfeasible in a reasonable timescale.
How do you calculate the amount of years it would take to travel using light years and the speed of light?
from the book

What are the economic advantages of using LEDs over conventional light sources?
It consumes less electricity for the same Lux and hence is more economic.
What is a sentence using the word conventional?
A conventional question to help improve your vocabulary is to ask you to make a sentence using a word you have just learned.
Why rockets are launched into space using jet propulsion where exhaust accelerates out from the rocket and the rocket accelerates in an opposite direction?
Rockets are launched using jet propulsion because it follows Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The exhaust expelled at high speed propels the rocket in the opposite direction. This allows the rocket to overcome Earth's gravity and achieve the necessary velocity to reach space.
What Chinese man attempted space flight?
According to Legend, Wan-hu, a civil servant of the Ming dynasty, try to attempt outer pace travel by using rockets on a chair.
Can you give me an example of a sentence using the word conventional?
Mordern day weapons are called conventional. :-]
How many words can you find in conventional?

How is the speed of light measured using a microwave?
The speed of light can be measured using a microwave by sending a microwave signal from one point to another and measuring the time it takes for the signal to travel. By knowing the distance between the two points and the time it takes for the signal to travel, the speed of light can be calculated using the formula speed distance/time.
