How long does it take a signal to reach a satellite in low Earth orbit?

From Earth to an orbiting satellite it takes approximately 200 to 299million M/S or slightly slower than the speed oflight. This varies on weather and atmospheric conditions. The signal is significantly faster, or closer to the speed of light (299792458 M/S), in the Vacuum of Outer Space.


How fast do you need to be to travel 4 light years in one hundred years?

The speed of light is 299,792,458 m/s. distance/speed=time. time=100 years. which is 3153600000 seconds. 4 light years is 299792458*316536000=9454254955488000 meters. So, 9454254955488000/x=3153600000. 9454254955488000/3153600000=2997924.6 m/s. That's 10,792,528.488 km/h. Just to put that in perspective, the fastest speed humans have achieved is about 250,000 km/h (Helios 2 spacecraft.)


How long will it take the light from a flashlight to travel around the Earth once?

Well it won't as light can't turn only go straight from its source. It almost could if you used fiber optics, and then if you used fiber optic cable the loss in the cable would have the light completely gone long before the light made it around the world. But the math Speed of light = 299,792,458 METERS PER SECOND Circumference of the Earth = 40075.16 km Math MPS to KMPS 299792458 / 1000 = 299,792.458 Kilometers per second 40075.16 km / 299792.458 kmps = .1336 seconds


Fastest moving object?

Many people believe light is the fastest moving object, yet it cannot be classified as an object. It does have both particle and wave like features yet those particles (photons) are massless, therefore not really an object. Photons have mass when they are moving. And it is a particle so yes light photons at 299792458 m/s which is 3x 10^8 m/s are the fastest moving object


How long does it take light to cross the universe?

1 A.U.= 1.49597870 x (10 to the 11th power) metres. The speed of light = 299792458 metres / second. So t=1 A.U. divided by c = 499 seconds or 8 minutes, 19 seconds. An Astronomical Unit is a little less than the average distance between the sun and the earth.
