Light year is the unit of to express astronomical distances, that light can travel in one year. Light moves at a velocity of about 300,000 kilometers (km) each second. So in one year, it can travel about 10 trillion km. More precisely, one light-year is equal to 9,500,000,000,000 kilometers.

Approximately, 1 light year = 10^16 mts.

Given that three athletes can complete one round around a circular field in 16, 24 and 36 min respectively.

Now, required time after which they met for the first time = LCM of (16, 24 & 36) min

Now, LCM of 16, 24, 36 = 144 minutes = 2 hrs 24 min.

An IP address (internet protocol address) is a numerical representation that uniquely identifies a specific interface on the network. Addresses in IPv4 are 32-bits long. This allows for a maximum of 4,294,967,296 (2^32) unique addresses. Addresses in IPv6 are 128-bits, which allows for 3.4 x 1038 (2^128) unique addresses.

IP addresses available to the internet are classified as Public.

The ozone layer is a region of Earth's Stratosphere that absorbs most of the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It contains high concentrations of ozone (O3) in relation to other parts of the atmosphere, although still small in relation to other gases in the stratosphere.

The Atmosphere is divided into 4 layers according to major changes in temperature. They are :

1. Troposphere,

2. Stratosphere,

3. Mesosphere  and

4. Thermosphere.

The farther away from earth, the thinner the atmosphere gets.
