The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.
When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.
If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>
Answer: The volume of gas expands because of the decrease in pressure as he tries to exit the water body, therefore he must take necessary precaution.
Explanation:
Using Boyle's law which states that the the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature
ie P1VI=P2V2
A diver absorbs compressed nitrogen gas when he dives into the water body, As he ascends out of the water body having less pressure, the volume of nitrogen gas which he absorbs will tend to expand following Boyle's Law. Therefore a scuba driver should not rises quickly but slowly to the surface or else the expanding nitrogen gas can cause tiny bubbles in his blood and tissue to form together with joints pains and eventually cause decompression sickness needing medical attention.
Salt water offers the least electrical resistance.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Least electrical resistance indicates that any material which readily allows the electric current through itself, and shows more conductivity.
Here pure water doesn't contain any ions, so it is a bad conductor.
Wood and glass are also bad conductors of electricity.
Salt water contains ions, which conducts electricity which means it shows least electrical resistance.
