Standard Form to Normal
To multiply a whole number by 10 just add a zero
In Standard form the power of 10 ( small number above the 10 )
tells you how often to multiply by 10.

Light Year
How far is it to the Town Centre?
5 minutes by car or about 20 minutes walk.
How far is it to Glasgow?
About 20 minutes by car?
How far is it to London ?
About 400 miles by road taking about 7 hours or about 5
hours by train
Sometimes the time a journey takes is a better indication of
the distance.
Light Years
Distances in the solar system are vast.
Distance from the Sun to Pluto is
59 400 000 000 km or 5.95 x 1010 km
To make sense of distance people often use
time. For these extremely large distances
scientists use the time that Light takes to go
from one point to another
As a comparison light takes about 1.27 seconds to go from
the Moon to Earth.
Light takes 4 Hours and 2 minutes to go from Pluto to the Earth
About 22 000 times the time so about 22000 the distance
Distances around the Universe
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is
150 000 000 km or 1.5 x 108 km
It is hard to make sense of this distance
The distance round the equator is about 38 000 km or
380 hours (nearly 16 days ) by car.
The distance from Sun to Earth is about 4 000 times a
journey round the equator or 174 year by car
Scientist need to compare these distances and as
there are no roads in space they use one quantity that
can move there LIGHT

Earth to Pluto
4 hrs 2 min
If a spacecraft could travel at the speed of light it would take
about 1.3 seconds to get to the moon
The distance from Earth to Pluto is like 3 600 RETURN
journeys to the moon
4.22 Light Years
Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Solar
System. It is 4.22 Light years away
If it was possible to build a craft which could travel at the speed of
light it would take over 4 years to get to this star. 4 hours into the
journey it would pass Pluto having completed about 1 / 365 part of
the journey
1 Light Year is 9.467 x 1012 km

Speed of Light is 299 792 458 m/s
In 1 second Light travels a distance of 300 million
metres or 300 000 km
In 1 hour Light travels a distance of 1 080 000 000
km or 1 080 Million Km or 1.08 x 109 km
In 1 year Light travels a distance of 9 467 280 000 000 km or
1 080 Million Km or 9.47 x 1012 km
To make sense it may be better to relate this to distances in the
Universe
