OpenStudy (cakt07):

C. I think

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Thx for medal ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup. I know it's not A or B, but are they EVENLY distributed?

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Well, they ARE through out the universe, so that was my best answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, okay then. Thanks again :P

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Hmmmm. Okay so now im thinking D, because they Are also years away.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is a light-year? A. the distance light travels in one earth year B. the distance light travels from the sun to the earth C. the distance light travels in one orbit of the moon D. the time it takes light to travel across the universe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't figure it out, it's a very strange question.

OpenStudy (cakt07):

@Destinymasha Can you help please? Because im confused a little on this biology thing. I understand it, but its kinda confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@radar @thomaster

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Well, its not really a strange question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer choices are strange, I think is what I am trying to say.

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Im thinking D or A

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

the best choice would be A --a light year ''a unit of astronomical distance equivalent to the distance that light travels in one year,''

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

welcome :}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would give you a medal but I can't. @cakt07 can u? :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How long does it take for light from a star that is 8 light-years away to reach earth? A. 8 earth minutes B. 16 earth minutes C. 8 earth years D. 16 earth years

OpenStudy (cakt07):

okay sure ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I AM PRETTY POSITIVE ITS A, I HATE THIS QUESTION

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Me to, Because if you think of light, Light IS FAST! So it would take a LOOOOONG time. Since light is pretty fast, im gonna go with A, but to do a little more research to make sure just hold on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nevermind, it was C. The first question I posted was D. The second was A, and the last was C.

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Wait, its Not A, because 1 light year is 100 earth years? old on

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

she said the last one was C......

OpenStudy (cakt07):

Oh, Okay yeah I just did research and it said, Light years is not time, its distance
