How long does it take sunlight to reach Mars?

Answer 1

About 3million seconds=to 500thousand hours=to 208333.333333333333333333333333days=to 507.39775319311157507660645021287years

Answer 2

If you mean from the Sun, just divide Mars's distance from the Sun (in kilometers) by the speed of light (which is 300,000 km/second). Note that Mars's distance from the Sun varies quite a bit (it has an eccentric orbit). The distance from the Sun varies between about 207 and 249 Gm; if you divide this by the speed of light, you get between 690 and 830 seconds.

Answer 3

Sunlight takes about 3 to 22 minutes to travel from the Sun to Mars, depending on the relative positions of the two planets in their orbits.

Answer 4

About 3million seconds=to 500thousand hours=to 208333.333333333333333333333333days=to 507.39775319311157507660645021287years

Answer 5

It takes light from the sun 760 seconds or 12 mins and 40 seconds to reach Mars, with mars being an average of 228 million km from the sun.

Answer 6

Mars is approximately 230,000,000 km from the Sun. The speed of light is around 300,000 km per second. Therefore light will take approximately 12 minutes and 47 seconds.

Answer 7

It takes about 11.5 minutes for light to get from the sun to Mars.

Answer 8

At Mars' orbital distance of 146.1 million miles from the sun,
sunlight needs roughly 784 seconds (13 minutes) for the trip.

Answer 9

it takes 8 miniutes 20 seconds

Answer 10

12 minutes 45 seconds
