Question

Light travels at a speed of 2.998*108 m/s. Light takes approximately 3.25 minutes to travel from the Sun to reach a planet. Calculate the distance from the Sun to this planet in meters. Give your answer to 0 decimal places.

Answer 1

585×10⁸ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate × time

d = (2.998×10⁸ m/s) (3.25 min) (60 s/min)

d = 585×10⁸ m
