How long does it take for the light generated by the star Betelgeuse to reach Earth?
The light takes about 640 years to reach Earth, as Betelgeuse (a red supergiant star) is about 640 light years from Earth.
How long does it takes the sunlight to reach the Earth?
It takes light around 8 minutes and 19 seconds to reach the earth from the sun.
How long does it take a beam of light to reach planet earth from your nearest star?
It takes approx. 8 and half minutes to reach earth
What time light takes from Sun to reach Earth is?
8 minutes.
What do you understand by the statement a star is eight light years away from the earth?
The light from a star eight light years away will take eight years to reach Earth.
What causes a nebula to change into a star?
Do you mean a nova? A Nebula is a large group of stars and dust in the sky. e.g. the Orion nebula. An individual star would not ordinarily change into a nebula, but the Crab Nebula is one such, first seen on earth about 1054 CE. But it had taken about 6500 years for the light to reach us. If your query was about nova or supernova, ask again.
IF the crab nebula is 6300 light years from earth how long did take the light from the supernova to reach earth?
6,300 years
How long does it take stars light to get to us?
In our Solar System, we see light from our sun reflected off the planets. In more distant galaxies, light from many millions of stars takes a long time to reach the Earth. It takes light 4 years to reach the Earth from Sirius, a near neighbouring star. Using the Hubble telescope, we can see the light from the Eagle Nebula, which takes 7,000 years to reach the Earth.
How does it take for light to reach earth?
If you mean light from the Sun, then it takes eight minutes for the light to reach the Earth.
Does most of suns energy reach earth in light energy?
it does reach the earth in light energy.
How does sunlight reach earth?
the light speed are very fast so light easily reach on earth
How long it takes the suns light to reach earth?
It takes approximately 8 minutes for the Sun's light to reach Earth.
How long does it take for the light generated by the star Betelgeuse to reach Earth?
The light takes about 640 years to reach Earth, as Betelgeuse (a red supergiant star) is about 640 light years from Earth.
How does the light from the moon reach the earth?
The moon does not emit light, rather it reflects it. The light from the sun shines on the moon, and it is reflected to earth.
What helps form a nebula?
Nebulae are formed from dust, hydrogen, helium, and other ionized gases. Most reach sizes up to several hundred light years in diameter, but one the size of Earth would only weigh a few kilograms.
How long will it take the get the suns heat to earth?
It will take 8 minutes for the light from the sun to reach Earth. The actual heat of the sun does not reach all the way out to Earth. The warmth on Earth comes from the conversion of light energy to heat energy.
