According to astronomers, what is a "light year" answer key

Mathematics

liberstina [14]3 years ago

A light-year is defined as the distance the light can cover in one year.

The light travels at speed of c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, and one year converted into seconds is
1 y = 365  \frac{d}{y} \cdot 24  \frac{h}{d} \cdot  60 \frac{m}{h} \cdot 60  \frac{s}{m}=3.15 \cdot 10^7 s

So the distance covered by the light in one year is
S=vt =(3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(3.15 \cdot 10^7 s)=9.45 \cdot 10^{15} m
And this is the distance that corresponds to one light-year.

Answer:

<h2>652 ft²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

It's a net of right rectangular prism.

We have three pairs of rectangles:

7ft × 8ft

7ft × 18ft

8ft × 18ft

The formula of an area of a rectangle l × w:

A = lw

Calculate the areas:

A₁ = (7)(8) = 56 ft²

A₂ = (7)(18) = 126 ft²

A₃ = (8)(18) = 144 ft²

The Surface Area :

S.A. = 2A₁ + 2A₂ + 2A₃

Substitute:

S.A. = 2(56) + 2(126) + 2(144) = 652 ft²
