Light year is a unit of distance,it is the distance light travels in a year it is 9.461000000000000KM
A light-year is a unit of distance, specifically used to measure astronomical distances. It is defined as the distance that light travels in one year in a vacuum, which is approximately 9.46 trillion kilometers (5.88 trillion miles). It is commonly used to describe the distance between celestial objects in our universe.
A light-year is a unit of distance, not time as the name might suggest. It is the distance that light travels in one year in a vacuum. Light travels at a speed of about 299,792 kilometers per second (or about 186,282 miles per second) in a vacuum, so in one year, light covers a distance of approximately 9.46 trillion kilometers (or about 5.88 trillion miles). This enormous distance is what we refer to as a light-year. Astronomers often use light-years to measure the vast distances between celestial objects such as stars, galaxies, and other cosmic phenomena.
