Answer: 4.068(10)^{13} km

Explanation:

A light year is a unit of length and is defined as <em>"the distance a photon would travel in vacuum during a Julian year at the speed of light at an infinite distance from any gravitational field or magnetic field. </em>"

In other words: It is the distance that the light travels in a year.

This unit is equivalent to 9.461(10)^{12}km, which mathematically is expressed as:

1Ly=9.461(10)^{12}km

Doing the conversion:

4.3Ly.\frac{9.461(10)^{12}km}{1Ly}=4.068(10)^{13}km

Furkat [3]

Niobium wire with a 2.60 mm diameter has a maximum current capacity of 500 A while still remaining superconducting.

<h3>Describe the present.</h3>

Current is the rate at which charge passes from one point on a circuit to another. In a circuit, a significant current flows when several coulombs or charge pass over the cross section of a wire. When the charge carriers are firmly packed inside the wire, high currents can be generated at low speeds.

<h3>What do current and electron actually mean?</h3>

Electron movement is referred to as electron current. The positive terminal receives electrons that are released by the negative terminal. Traditional current, usually referred to as just current, exhibits behavior consistent with positive charge carriers being the source of current flow. Regular current is received at the positive end and then flows to a negative terminal.

How does an airplane engine work?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Un motor aeronáutico o motor de aviación es aquel que se utiliza para la propulsión de aeronaves mediante la generación de una fuerza de arrastre.

Existen distintos tipos de motores de aviación, aunque se dividen en dos clases básicas: motores recíprocos —o de pistón— y de turbina de gas. Recientemente y gracias al desarrollo de la NASA y otras entidades, se ha comenzado también la producción de motores eléctricos para aeronaves que funcionen con energía solar fotovoltaica.

eso depende de el motor que cada avion tenga
