Question

SCIENCE HELP PLEASE?

"Imagine that your friends and relatives will be arriving at your house tomorrow, and that they are anxious to hear about what you have been learning in class. Rather than just telling them about the cool information you have just learned, you are going to make the next leap and teach them instead! By the time they leave your house, they, too, will be experts on distances in space!"

Btw your supposed to explain what a light year is, so please write a detailed response. Thank you.

Answer 1

Hi

Answer 2

a unit of astronomical distance equivalent to the distance that light travels in one year, which is 9.4607 × 1012 km (nearly 6 trillion miles).

Answer 3

A light-year is how astronomers measure distance in space. It’s defined by how far a beam of light travels in one year – a distance of six trillion miles. Think of it as the bigger, badder cousin of the inch, the mile, the kilometer, and the furlong. If you like to keep up with what’s going on in astronomy, it’s worth spending a little bit of time understanding what the deal is with this funny unit of measurement.

Answer 4

Thank you, hopefully my stupid teacher will give me a passing grade this time.

Answer 5

Peridot: In your shoes I would have looked up "light year." This is what others, who are trying to help you, do.

Kindly do not refer to your teacher as "stupid." Would you like it if he/she refered to you in the same way?

Answer 6

You wouldn't like my lazy teacher, but whatever I have the answer.

Answer 7

Bye
