Answer: Light years is a form of measurement like km

Explanation: light years is the speed of light which is 299792458 meters a second but for earth years for example 1 light year is 365 normal days Which is 8760 hours which is 525600 minutes which is 31536000 seconds

so 31536000 x 299792458 is 9,454,254,955,488,000 meters a year which to simplify it and not needing to say that many numbers we say one light year.

If a single family residence is constructed on the cleared lot what processes will control the surface runoff from the lot
zzz [600]

Answer:

As the region is deforested, the topography, gravity, soil permeability and terrain slope will control the runoff, as well as the intensity of the rain.

Explanation:

Runoff occurs when water flows over a soil that is saturated, that is, soaked. What controls the runoff efficiently is the native vegetation of the place, however, when this area is cleared, the soil is completely at the mercy of saturation, causing the runoff to be controlled by topography, gravity, permeability of the soil and the slope of the terrain, as well as the intensity of the rain.
