light travels one light year in one years timeokay so whoever wrote this above is a retard, and light travels 6 trillion miles in one year, there is 525,600 minutes in a year, times that by 60, then do your 1.86X10 to the fifth and there you go
The speed of light is about 183,000 miles per second, or just under 300,000 kilometers per second. Radio transmissions, which travel at the speed of light, can go from the earth to the moon in under two seconds, but it would take them almost nine minutes to reach the sun. As far as distance, no one has ever theorized that light stops traveling, if unimpaired by a solid substance. It's presumed that it can travel to the known edges of the universe, but it can take it billions of years to get there.
First of all, a light year is not a measure of time. It is a measure of distance. A light year is the distance light travels in a year. Second, it depends on the distance of the star. The closes star to us is the sun. Light from it takes 8 minutes to reach Earth. The next nearest is Proxima Centauri, from whigh light takes about 4 years to reach us. The stars we see at night are a few hundred light years from us. However, the vast majority of stars in the universe are to far away to be visible to the naked eye. The most distant stars are billions of light years away.
It travels "one light year."Light travels at 186,282.397 miles per second, so this is about5,878,000,000,000 miles (5.88 trillion miles, 5.88 x 1012 miles)or 9.46 trillion kilometers (9.46 x 1012 km)To estimate this distance in miles,186,300 miles/second60 (seconds in one minute)60 (minutes in an hour)24 (hours in a day)x 365.25 (days in one year)---------------------------------------5,879,180,880,000About 5.9 trillion miles in one year.Light is said to travel at 186,000 miles (rounded off) per second.There are 60 seconds in a minute : 60 x 1116000060 minutes in an hour : 60 x 66960000024 hours in a day : 24 x 16070400000One light year: 5,865,696,000,000 miles per yearor 5.865 trillion miles.The exact answer (in miles):it 6,000,000,000 miles.AnswerYou're off by a factor of 1000. It's actually about 6 trillion miles (6*10^12) The EXACT answer in miles is 5,874,589,152,000 so 5.87 trillion miles to be simple. Space is really vast considering the nearest galaxy (Andromeda) is 2 million light years away :)5,869,593,072,00 is the exact answer5,878,625,373,184 miles.
88,179,380,597,754.15 miles
222 billion miles = 0.0377647371 light years.
In 20 years, light will travel 1.17569996 × 1014 miles in a vacuum.
In 4 years light will travel approx 23.5 trillion miles.
27,000 light-years is a distance of 158,720,000,000,000,000 miles. This is the distance light will travel in 27,000 years.
0.2 Light Years. Approx 6 trillian miles in 1 light year
A light year is the distance light travels in one year in a vacuum. In miles, this translates to: 5.87849981 × 1012 miles
First of all, light does not travel that fast. Light travels approximately at 299792458m/s. Assuming ~30 years is a generation, then we get 1181781869436000m or 734325209175.91267000715819613457 miles.
About 2.93924991 x 1013 Miles
you cant light years refer to the distance light can travel in 1 year 1 Light Year = 5878625373183.61 Miles
A light-year is a distance, not a year. 16 light-years is the distance light can travel in 16 years - 94,058,003,200,000 miles.
