The distance from the sun to Mars is 2.279×108 km.?

How long does it take for light to travel from the Sun to Mars, given that the distance between them is 2.279 × 10^8 kilometers?

1 Answers

Light travels at about 3.00×10^8 m/s

2.279E8 km x (1000 m / 1 km) x (1 s / 2.998E8 m) = 760.2 s or 12.67 minutes
