Explanation & Answer

The sun reaches all of the planets, however at different speeds. Light travels at a speed of 299,792 kilometers per second; 186,287 miles per second. It takes 499.0 seconds or approximately 8 minutes for light to travel from the Sun to Earth. 

The times varies for other plants, such a Jupiter or Uranus because it is farther from the sun.
