Approximately how long will it take light to travel to 1.7 AU in minutes? Use 3 × 108 m/s for the speed of light.

Answer 1

c is roughly 300,000,000 m/s, a little less actually.

1 AU is 150,000,000,000 meters/ c gives you the number of seconds....cancel a zero on the top for every zero on the bottom.

60 s per minute....
