Question

The distance of milky way galaxy is 5.6*10^22km. Assuming the speed of light to be 3*10^5km/s, find the time taken by light to travel this distance is SI system.



Please help me. If you don’t know the answer then it’s better to not write any nonsense answer for the points. If you know the. Only write the answer okay.
Please

Answer 1

Explanation:

Although the light year is a commonly used unit, astronomers prefer a different unit called the parsec (pc). A parsec, equal to 3.26 light years, is defined as the distance at which 1 Astronomical Unit subtends an angle of 1 second of arc (1/3600 of a degree) When we use the parsec for really large distances, we often put a prefix in front of it - like kiloparsecs (kpc), which are equal to 1000 parsecs - or Megaparsecs (Mpc), equal to a million parsecs.

The Milky Way is about 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 km (about 100,000 light years or about 30 kpc) across. The Sun does not lie near the center of our Galaxy. It lies about 8 kpc from the center on what is known as the Orion Arm of the milky way
