There are none at all. A "light year" is a distance, not a time.  It's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year ... about 5.875 trillion miles.

The sun's properties (luminosity, size, and temperature) have not changed much over the last 4.6 billion years. what do you thin
Vikentia [17]

The answer is; The sun will turn into a red giant


This occurs as the hydrogen fuel in the fusion core of the sun begins to deplete. When the hydrogen fuel is depleted, the star begins to collapse on itself due to gravity. This pressure causes the heavier helium to begin fusing in the area around the core.  The stars begin to heat up again producing enough energy to push out the outer shells of the star. This causes the star to expand. The outer shells become less hot hence the decrease in luminosity of red giants.

A skydiver of mass 87 kg falls straight down. If air resistance exerts 355 N of force on him as he falls, what is the net force
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

497.6 N

Explanation:

From the question,

The net force on the skydiver = weight of the skydiver- the resistive force of air

F' = W-F...................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the skydiver, F = resistive force of air.

But,

W = mg................ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the skydiver, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F' = mg-F............ Equation 3

Given: m = 87 kg, F = 355 N, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 3

F' = 87(9.8)-355

F' = 852.6-355

F' = 487.6 N
