Dear Student
Answer:
d
=
1.49
×
10
11
m

Explanation:
Velocity is defined as the rate of travel, and can be found using the distance formula.

velocity
=
distance
time

Rearranging this formula we can solve for distance given velocity and time of travel.

d
=
v
t

We are given velocity and time, and so can solve for distance, but if we plug in the values given;

d
=
(
3.00
×
10
8
m/s
)
(
8.3
minutes
)

We can see that the units do not match up. Since seconds are the SI unit for time, we will need to convert 8.3 minutes to seconds.

t
=
(
8.3
minutes
)
(
60
seconds/minute
)
=
(
498
s
)

Now our units work out and we can solve for distance.

d
=
(
3.00
×
10
8
m/s
)
(
498
s
)

d
=
1.49
×
10
11
m
Thus the time for light to reach from sun to earth is exactly 8.3 min
