Light year is a measurement of A. Speed of aeroplanes B. Speed of light C. Stellar distances D. Speed of rockets

[amp_mcq option1=”Speed of aeroplanes” option2=”Speed of light” option3=”Stellar distances” option4=”Speed of rockets” correct=”option3″]

The correct answer is: C. Stellar distances.

A light year is a unit of astronomical distance equivalent to the distance that light travels in one year, which is 9.4607 × 1012 km (nearly 6 trillion miles). It is used to measure distances to stars and other celestial objects outside the Solar System.

The speed of aeroplanes is measured in kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph). The speed of light is a fundamental constant of nature that is the same for all observers, regardless of their motion. It is denoted by the letter c and has a value of 299,792,458 meters per second. The speed of rockets is measured in kilometers per second (km/s) or miles per second (mph).

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
