Description
Light travels at a constant speed of 3.0 x 105km/s.
The distance between the Sun and the Earth is about 1.5 x 108km.
Express your result with the appropriate number of significant figures.
User generated content is uploaded by users for the purposes of learning and should be used following Studypool's honor code & terms of service.
Explanation & Answer
d=vt
d=1.5 x 10^8 km
v=3.0 x 10^5 km/s
So t=d/v=1.5 x 10^8 / 3.0 x 10^5=0.5 x10^3=5.0 x 10^2 s
Therefore it takes light 5.0 x 10^2 s to travel from the Sun to the Earth.
