Since light travels at the speed of 299,792,458 m/s, in order to find the distance of a light year (the distance light travels in one year) you must solve the following mathematical equation: 299,792,458 x 60^2(60 squared)x 24 x 365. I believe the answer is 9,444,794,155,488,000 meters. 9,444,794,155,488 kilometers. 9,444 terameters (Tera= one trillion).

JordanThe formula to find the distance of a light year is (speed of light) x (number of seconds in a year). The speed of light is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second, and there are about 31,536,000 seconds in a year. Multiplying these two values will give you the distance of a light year, which is approximately 9.46 trillion kilometers or 5.88 trillion miles.

How many second in a light year?
A light year is a measure of distance, not time. A light year is the distance that light will travel in one year. One light second is 186,000 miles. A light year is a measure of distance, not time. A light year is the distance that light will travel in one year. One light second is 186,000 miles.
How many kilometers the distance of star in one light year in light years?
The distance of one light year, in light years, is exactly 1.
How many months are in a solar year?
Solar year is a measurement of distance instead of time. It is the distance that light travels in one year.
What is distance of 1 light year?
i have no idea just joking
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!
