On earth the arcminute is a nautical mile of 6000 feet. the arc second is 100 feet. The Ancient Egyptians figured this out.
By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that miles measure distance.
The two units are not compatible. A light year is a measure of distance. An arcsecond is a measure of arc or angle. To convert arc to length, you must first know the distance to what you are measuring.
The metric system is used to measure distance in Brazil.
A kilometer is a measure of distance and equates to 0.621371 miles.
Distance.
A parsec is a distance corresponding to a parallax of one arcsecond. The two words that form "parsec" are parallax and arcsecond.
In Light-years(how far light travels in 1 Earth year), AU(Astronomical Unit=distance between the Earth and the Sun), Parsecs( the distance from the Sun to an astronomical object which has a parallax angle of one arcsecond), or simply miles.
1 Astronomical Unit (AU) is the average distance between the earth and the sun. It is approximately 149,598,000 km. 1 light year (ly) is the distance light travels in one year. It is approximately 9,460,730,472,580 km The other commonly used astronomical measurement is the parsec. 1 parsec (pc) is the distance at which 1 arcsecond measures 1 AU. It is approximately 3.26156 ly or 30856740079724 km. 1 arcsecond is 1/60 of a arcminute.1 arcsecond is 1/60 of a degree.1 degree is 1/360 of a circle.
Astronomers normally use parsecs to define distance on a galactic scale. The definition of a parsec is quite difficult to visualise if you are not familiar with terms such as parallax and arcsecond. (The word parsec is derived from these terms; parallax arcsecond).In contrast to this, it is easy to grasp the concept of a light year. It is the distance that light travels [in a vacuum] in one [Julian] year. This is why popular science articles tend to express distances in light years.

The 'parsec' (3.26 light years) is the distance at which an object exhibits an annual parallax of 1 arcsecond. Although the whole idea is based in the trigonometric tangent of angles, we can assume a perfectly linear relationship for such small angles. -- 0.1 arcsecond ==> 3.26/0.1 = 32.6 light years -- 0.02 arcsecond ==> 3.26/0.02 = 163 light years Their magnitude has nothing to do with the question you asked. It may be relevant to the second part of the question from which you copied only the first part. Thanks for including all of the given data, though.
