8.31 minutes.
It takes approximately 8 minutes and 20 seconds for sunlight to travel 93 million miles from the sun to Earth.
Since 1 AU is the distance from the Sun to the Earth and it takes about 8 Minutes for light to travel such a distance this problem can be solved by simple multiplication and division.(50,000 AU)(8 Minutes)=400,000 Minutes/60 (Minutes/Hour)=6666.67 Hours/24 (Hours/Earth Day)=277.78 DaysSo the answer is 277.78 Earth Days or 0.76 Earth Years!
You would have to circumnavigate the Earth (along the equator) 3733 times to travel 1 AU. If you were circling the Earth in a spaceship at an orbital altitude of 100 km, you would still have to make 3675 orbits to travel 1 AU, which represents the average distance of the Earth from the Sun.1 AU = 149,597,870.700 kmEquatorial circumference = 40075.017 km1.49 x 108 divided by 4.01 x 104 = 3732.946Orbital distance at 100 km ASL = approx. 40703 kmThis is not substantially more than the Earth's circumference.
no, the Earth is many times heavier
The Sun's diameter is about 109 times greater than Earth's.
light can travel around earth about seven times
once a year... -_-
The Moon orbits the Earth about 12 and 1/2 times in one year.
Sunlight takes approximately 8 minutes 20 seconds to make the 93 million mile journey.

It take's about eight minutes for sun to reach earth
you can travel around the earth 281,106.9 times, if going around the equator
27.32 days once a year
If you could travel from Earth to the Sun without stopping at a speed of 1000 kilometers per hour, then it would take you 17 years!
About 1977.48 years.
It takes 8 minutes to get to earth, and closer to half an hour to get to Jupiter.
