What distance is greater?

The distance from the Earth to the Moon is greater than the distance from the Earth to the International Space Station.


When is a parsec used?

Parsecs are used as units of measurement for the enormous distances in space. One parsec is roughly 3.3 times greater in distance than one light year. A light year is the distance light travels in one year in a vacuum.


Is a light year have greater distance or a astronomical unit?

A light year is about 63,000 times greater than an astronomical unit.


Is the output distance always greater than the input distance?

No, the output distance is not always greater than the input distance. It depends on the specific situation and factors involved.


Is 098 less than a mile?

It depends on what units are used for 098. 098 inches are significantly less than a mile but 098 light years or even .098 light years is a hugely greater distance than a mile. I hope this teaches you that units are important: they are not there simply because some mathematicians had some space to fill!


What can you conclude about space from light year travel?

We can conclude that space is very vast. The distance between the celestial bodies are so large in numbers that we use Light years as unit other than Kilometer or meter.


What is the state of interparticle distance inside a solid liquid and gas?

The interparticle distance is greater in a gas than in a liquid, and greater in a liquid than in a solid.


Is the distance covered by a body may be greater than a magnitude of the displacement?

yes,displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body,so distance covered by a body may be greater than the displacement.


Why Refractive index the medium is always greater than 1?

The refractive index indicates how much light is slowed down as it travels through a medium compared to its speed in a vacuum. Since light travels more slowly in a medium than in a vacuum, the refractive index of the medium is always greater than 1.


Can my total displacement be greater than my total distance?

No, your total displacement (the straight line distance from start to finish, regardless of path taken) cannot be greater than your total distance (the sum of all the length of the path taken). Displacement can be shorter or equal to distance, but not greater.


What is an light year?

The light year is used to measure distances that are greater than our solar system. It is the next form of measurement above the Au, or astronomical unit, or the distance between the Earth and and the sun. It is normally used to measure distances between stars or galaxies. The light year is equivalent to 5,878,625,373,183.61 miles or 9,460,730,472,580.81 km. See the related link for more information.


Why do we need to use light years as a way of measuring cosmic distances?

A light year is a much greater distance than almost any other unit in use. It is equivalent to about 9 trillion kilometers or 6 trillion miles. With a unit such as a light year we can discuss the vast distances of space without having to resort to absurdly large numbers.
