186.2824 miles.
Depends on the medium.
500 light seconds = 149,896,229 kilometers
2,248,443,435,000 meters (this is with a more accurate measure of 299,792,458 meters/s)
About 9.45 trillion kilometers (5.88 trillion miles) per year if you mean how far can light (including the sun's light) travel in a year. 365 days/year * 86,400 seconds/day * 299,792 km/s = 9.45 x 10^12 km/year
Light will travel 5.6 million miles (9 million km) in 30 seconds. It doesn't matter where it's going.Pacing off that distance within the solar system, it's enough to get you about 15% of the way fromthe sun to Mercury, and about 11% of the way from earth to Mars when they are closest together.
It is the equivalent of how far light can travel at the speed of light in one year.
3,725,647.941 miles.
186000 times 20 (3,720,000 miles)
Speed doesn't travel. Light travels.Light goes about 300,000 km in a second; in an hour, it goes 3600 times as far, since an hour has 3600 seconds.
As far as light can travel
An au is an astronomical unit, or how far light will travel in a year.
Speed of light 3.0*10^8 m/s times 5 seconds = 15*10^8m
In a vacuum, light travels about 3,725,648 miles every 20 seconds. In scientific notation this distance is expressed as: 3.725648 x 106 miles per 20 seconds.
How far does light travel in one hour
500 light seconds = 149,896,229 kilometers
The Sun is 92,700,000 miles from Earth, and it takes light 499 seconds to come that far, so another answer is "499 light-seconds."
525m
Light travels at 186600 mps in vacuo. This means that in 5 seconds the light from a laser would travel 186600 * 5= 933000 miles away/
