which is the best unit of measure to use when describing the distance between the nearest galaxy and our solar system? A.light year B.angstorm C.meter D.centimeter
The common distance measures we use depend on what we are measuring. 1. For distances within our solar system, or other solar systems, the common unit is the ... 1 pc = 3.26 light years = about the distance to the nearest star ... for distances between galaxies
I think A. for real
where did u search that
Common sense. How big is everything else on your list? Small, very small. Much better to use a much, much, much longer unit of distance.
yep definitely light year. Even without searching, it is the most logical answer.
oh ok
thanks yall

i think its one tenth billionth of a meter

yes, it's 10^-10 meters. So tiny.
