From Earth, it takes about 8minutes 20seconds if you travel in a straight line.
It takes 8 minutes for the light of the sun to reach the earth. Now can you work out the answer to your question.
8 minutes.
Engines cannot travel at light speed. The only thing that can travel at this speed is the Photon, the particle of light.
Light takes about 8 minutes to travel from Earth to the sun. The sun is about 93 million miles away, so it would take about 177 years to get to the sun in a car traveling at 60 miles per hour, and about 21.5 years to get to the sun in an airplane traveling at 500 miles per hour. (These are just comparisons; cars and airplanes don't travel in outer space.)
No. The distance from the Earth to the Sun is 8 light-minutes.It takes light 8 minutes to travel from the Sun to the Earth, in other words.The distance that light can travel in one year is one light-year.
Light waves ALWAYS travel at the "Speed of Light"....based on the medium that the waves are traveling through. It just so happens that they go the FASTEST in a VACUUM.
Speed. All photons traveling through a vacuum travel at the speed of light.
A non-relativistic particle is any particle not traveling at a speed close to the speed of light. This is not a property of particular type of particle; any particle may in general travel at any speed (below the speed of light). An exception are particles which are massless such as photons and gluons, these MUST travel at the speed of light.
Light is a particle called a foton that is fired of by a star and then continue's to travel in the direction it was fired in for many ages until it reaches something it collides with. it can be that this particle reaches earth or your eye in witch case you see it
Because they are made up of photons, which have no rest mass. Having no rest mass, they are the only particle that is capable of traveling at the speed of light per the lorentz transformation.
light takes approximately 8 minutes to travel from the sun to the earth. even though it is traveling extremely fast, the earth is about 93million miles away from the sun, so if you think about it 8 minutes is pretty quick
The wave-particle duality theory. This explains why sometimes light appears to travel as a wave, and why sometimes it appears to travel as a particle.
As a particle or as a wave.
Engines cannot travel at light speed. The only thing that can travel at this speed is the Photon, the particle of light.
the wavelength of any reflected or emitted photon or other particle is shortened in the direction of travel.
well,it shines. it travels about 8 mins, ie., 3*10^8 m/s(through vaccum) from sun to earth. it does not need a medium to travel. light exhibit both wave nature and particle nature.
It takes approximatly 7minutes to travel from sun to earth the sun light.
If you travel near the speed of light, then, from the point of view of somebody who is NOT travelling with you (say, someone who stays behind on Earth):Time will pass slower for you.Distances for you will be shorter (in the direction of travel).Your mass will increase.
Light waves travel from sun to the earth.
