How far in Light years can a Pulsar travel?
As far as light can travel
How far does light travel in 6 years?
In vacuum it will travel approx 57 trillion kilometres.
How far does light travel in five years?
About 2.93924991 x 1013 Miles
How long does it take light to travel a distance of 2700 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.
How far does light travel one hour miles?
How far does light travel in one hour
How far can infrared light reach?
Infrared light can travel through a vacuum and is limited by the strength of the source and the sensitivity of the detector. In space, infrared light from distant stars and galaxies can travel vast distances, enabling astronomers to view objects billions of light years away. On Earth, atmospheric absorption limits how far infrared light can travel.
How far does the light from the stars travel to earth?
This varies widely, between about four light-years for the nearest star (after the Sun, that is), to billions of light-years for stars in the farthest observable galaxies.
How far would it take to travel to alpha centaure?
Toliman (Alpha Centauri) is at a distance of 4.3 light-years. That means it would take a ray of light 4.3 years to travel from here to Toliman, or from Toliman to here.
How far does light move in 1000 years?
Light travels at approximately 186,000 miles per second. By multiplying that amount by 60 it gives you the distance light travels in one minute. Multiply that figure by 60 and you get the distance for one hour. Then multiply by 24 to get the distance traveled in one day. Multiply that by 365 for one year then by 1000 to see how far light can travel in 1000 years. So, light traveling at approximately 186,000 miles per second, in 1000 years can travel a staggering...5,865,696,000,000,000 miles. That is nearly 6 quadrillion miles! There is also a unit of distance designed especially for light (but can also be used for other things) called a 'light year'. A light year is how far light can travel in one year. Therefore in 1000 years, light can travel 1000 light years.
How long is 14 lightyears?
A 'light-year' is a distance calculated by how far light can travel in one standard year. A 'light-minute' is how far light can travel in one minute. Earth is about 8 light-minutes (93,000,000 miles) from the Sun. 14 light-years in space is going to be about 84 trillion miles, a huuuuge distance!
How far in kilometers will a star travel if it takes 37 light years to reach earth?
The star won't normally "travel the 37 light-years to Earth". 37 light-years would most likely be the distance from the star to Earth; it takes light from the star 37 years to reach us. Please note that a light-year is a unit of distance; it is NOT a unit of time. To convert from light-years to kilometers, multiply the number of light-years by 9.5 x 1012.
Why doesn't light travel as straight or far in water as in air?
There are more things for the light waves to bounce off of in water, so light can not travel in a straight line or as far.
