Answer:

1.99 parsecs.

Explanation:

We have been given that the most recently discovered system close to Earth is a pair of brown dwarfs known as Luhman 16. It has a distance of 6.5 light-years.

We know that one light year equals to 0.306601 parsecs. To convert 6.5 light-years to parsecs, we will multiply 0.306601 by 6.5.

6.5\text{ Light-years}=6.5\times 0.306601\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}=1.9929065\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}\approx 1.99\text{ Parsecs}

Therefore, Luhman 16 is approximately 1.99 parsecs away from the Earth.

Complete the paragraph to compare Uranus and Neptune.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Uranus and Neptun are outer planets od the Solar system, since they are located after the asteroid belt. All of these outer planets are much larger then the inner ones so they are called the "ice giants". The other reason for this name is that they are very far from the Sun, so their temperature is low. Another feature they have in common is their atmosphere which is composed of gases, including methane, which is responsible for their blue color, since methane absorbs red light. However Neptune is known for very fast winds and storms in its atmosphere which is responsible for its high activity and changes.

So, the blanks should be filled with:

Sun

methane

Neptune

outer planets
