Light takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel from the Sun to Earth, which is approximately 93 million miles. If light takes 345 seconds (or about 5 minutes and 45 seconds), this distance would be roughly 65 million miles. Since Venus orbits the Sun at an average distance of about 67 million miles, this estimate aligns closely with its average distance from the Sun. Thus, Venus is approximately 67 million miles from the Sun.
Light travels at approximately 186,282 miles per second. The circumference of the Earth is about 24,901 miles. Therefore, it would take light approximately 0.133 seconds to travel all the way around the Earth.
The moon is roughly 250,000 miles and light travels at about 186,000 miles per second, so, it would take about 1.30 seconds for the moonlight to reach the earth.
Depending on the orbits of Venus and the Earth around the Sun, the distances between Venus and Earth vary. It as been as close as 38.2 million km, but average distance of 41 million km. 41 million km is approximately 0.000004333703419500923 Light Years
Distance from the earth to the sun is about 93,000,000 miles. The speed of light is about 186,000 miles/second or about 8 minutes, 20 seconds.
If venus is 6.o light minutes from the sun what is Venus distance from the sun i astronomical units?
Assuming you mean an Earth day and not a Venus day. Venus has an orbital speed of 35.02 km/s or 21.76 miles/s So there are 86,400 seconds in an Earth day. 21.76 x 86,400 gives the answer. ---------------------------------------------- For a Venus day. There are 20,996,928 seconds in a Venus day 21.76 x 20,996,928 gives the answer.

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."
Light travels at 186,000 miles per hour, and the Earth orbits about 93,000,000 miles from the Sun. When you do the math, you find that the Sun's light takes about 500 seconds to reach the Earth. There are 60 seconds in one minute, so the Earth is about 8.3 light-minutes away from the Sun.
About 1.3 seconds. The Moon is, roughly, 250,000 miles from the Earth, and light travels at 186,000 miles per second.
It takes about 1.3 seconds since the distance between the Earth and the Moon is 230,100 miles and light travels 186,282 miles per second.
Venus is 25,809,000 miles away from Earth.
Light travels at approximately 186,282 miles per second. The circumference of the Earth is about 24,901 miles. Therefore, it would take light approximately 0.133 seconds to travel all the way around the Earth.
I might be wrong but light year is how far light can travel in one whole year. Venus is not that far away. Just for comparison it takes the suns light 8 minute to get to Earth so light is very fast. So yeh, i dont think Venus is a light uear awayVenus is, depending on it place relative to the Earth in their orbits around the Sun, from 3 to 20 light minutes away or 0.0000057 ly to 0.000038 ly

Practical Answer If the distance between Earth and Venus is to be maximum, then the two planets would have to be on opposite sides of the Sun. There would be no way to send radio waves to Venus in this situation as the waves cannot travel through the Sun. So, in reality, this question has no answer.Theoretical Answer For the sake of curiosity, lets assume the waves travel through the Sun in a straight line.: Earth's average distance from the sun = 93,000,000 miles Venus' average distance from the sun = 67,200,000 miles Max separation (opposite directions from the sun) = 160,200,000 miles Speed of radio (light) = 186,282 mi/sec Time for a radio or radar return = 2 x (160,200,000 / 186,282) = 1,720 seconds = 28-2/3 minutes(rounded)
I think it is 125517292.8 miles
