Because we're creating a 95% confidence interval, this means we have two tails of 2.5%. When we look up 0.025 in the Z table (click to open) , we find that it corresponds to a z-score of 1.96. After plugging everything into the equation, we find a lower bound of 480.8 and an upper bound of 559.2.
As already noted, the speed of light (expressed in meters per second) means that light travels a distance of 9,460,528,000,000 km (or 5,878,499,817,000 miles) in a single year. This distance is known as a âlight yearâ, and is used to measure objects in the Universe that are at a considerable distances from us.
The Light Year is the distance that the light travels in one year, which is 9,460,528,405,000 kilometers. The Meter is the basic metric unit of length, which equals 1.094 yards. Please enter light years value in the first input field, and you'll see the result value in meters in the second field.
