9.46 trillion kilometers, about 6 trillion miles. There are just about as many AUs (astronomical units, the average distance between the Earth and the Sun) in a light year as there are inches in a mile.
A lightyear is a much larger distance.
A lightyear is a unit of distance, not time. It represents the distance that light can travel in one year, which is about 5.88 trillion miles.
"Lightyear" is a noun. It is a unit of distance used to measure interstellar space.
Yes.
Because the definition of a lightyear is: how long light can travel in a year. Hope this helped;)
Lightyear isn't about time, it's distance. One lightyear is ten trillion kilometers.
buzz lightyear (FTW!)
Please note that a light-year is a distance. As far as I know, the square root of a distance is not something that makes sense physically - in other words, you can express it mathematically, but it's not a unit used in practice.
One lightyear is the distance that light travels in one year, which is about 5.88 trillion miles (9.46 trillion kilometers).
Light can travel about 6 trillion miles in a year, so that distance is called a light-year.
A light year is the distance that light will travel in a vacuum in a year. Nothing can travel that distance in an hour so a lightyear per hour is a meaningless concept of speed. Though impossible to attain, it is a measure of speed while a kilometre is a measure of distance. There is no direct relationship between the two.
