Question

Express average distance between earth and sun in parsec and light year

Answer 1

Answer:

1.579 x 10^(-5) light years.

4.84 x 10^(-6) Parsecs.

Explanation:

1 Parsec = 3.26 Light-Years

Sun is 8.3 Light-minutes away from the Earth.

8.3 light-minutes = 1.579 x 10^(-5) light years.

As,

3.26 Light-years = 1 Parsec

1 Light-Year = 0.306 Parsecs

1.579 x 10^(-5) Light-years = 1.579 x 10^(-5) x 0.306

so,

Distance from the Sun to the Earth in Parsecs = 4.84 x 10^(-6) Parsecs.
