Answer:
Distance of Alpha century in miles [tex]= 25.279 * 10^{12}[/tex]
Distance of Alpha century in Astronomical unit [tex]= 2.719 * 10^5[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Distance of Alpha Centauri from the Solar System [tex]= 4.3[/tex] light year
Light year is the distance traveled by light in one year. Its a unit of measurement for distant celestial objects
One light year [tex]= 5.879 * 10^{12}[/tex] miles
Total number of miles in [tex]4.3[/tex] light years is equal to
[tex]4.3 * 5.879 * 10^{12}\\= 25.279 * 10^{12}[/tex]
Distance of Alpha century in miles [tex]= 25.279 * 10^{12}[/tex]
Number of astronomical units in one light year [tex]= 63241.1[/tex]
Total number of astronomical units in [tex]4.3[/tex] light years is equal to
[tex]4.3 * 63241.1\\= 2.719 * 10^5[/tex]
Distance of Alpha century in Astronomical unit [tex]= 2.719 * 10^5[/tex]
