At their closest, Venus and Earth are 40 million kilometers from each other. At the speed of light, 3 x 108 meters per second, that distance could be traversed in slightly over two minutes. At the furthest, Venus and Earth are 257 million kilometers from each other. At the speed of light, that distance can be traversed in slightly over 14 minutes.
That is definitely not the correct distance between Sun and Venus. Once you get the correct distance in kilometers, divide it by the speed of light (300,000 kilometers/second), to get the time in seconds. Or you can do it this way. It takes light about 500 seconds to reach Earth from the Sun. Venus is at about 0.723 times the distance of Earth from the Sun. So it takes light about 0.723 x 500 seconds to get to Venus from the Sun. That gives the answer as 6.025 minutes. So, rounded, the answer is 6 minutes. Incidentally, the distance of Venus from the Sun is about 108.2 million kilometers.
138 seconds ± ~53 seconds. Since the orbit of Venus is on a different path than the orbit of the Earth, the time that it takes for the light to become visible on Earth from Venus actually varies, but not by too much. 2 minutes and 18 seconds is only at one point in the year, but the distance from Earth to Venus varies so one can also conclude that the time it takes light to reach Earth from Venus varies directly with the time as well. So, the time it takes for the sun is 138 seconds ± ~53 seconds depending on where the planets are in their orbit.
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
Venus is about 2.32 light minutes from Earth, Jupiter is about 35 light minutes from Earth.
Venus has a shorter travel time in light years from Earth compared to Jupiter. The distance between Earth and Venus can range from about 0.28 to 0.69 light minutes, while the distance to Jupiter ranges from about 32 to 53 light minutes.

Mercury and Venus have orbits that are closer to the Sun than Earth, so light from the Sun reaches them sooner than it reaches Earth. (The Earth is about 8 light minutes from the Sun, which means sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach the Earth after it leaves the Sun.)
At the furthest, Venus is 261 million kilometers from Earth. The Airbus A380 has a cruising speed of about 290 meters per second. So the A380 would take 10417 days, or 28.52 years to reach Venus.
Venus is about 2.32 light minutes from Earth, Jupiter is about 35 light minutes from Earth.
There's no answer to this question; theoretically a craft could travel a centimeter per century and still reach Venus ... eventually.
Venus is about 2.32 light minutes from Earth, Jupiter is about 35 light minutes from Earth.
Venus has a shorter travel time in light years from Earth compared to Jupiter. The distance between Earth and Venus can range from about 0.28 to 0.69 light minutes, while the distance to Jupiter ranges from about 32 to 53 light minutes.
That depends on the speed that you're traversing, The closest Venus comes to Earth in it's orbit around the Sun is about 25 million miles. If you were traveling to Venus in a rocket ship at a speed of 25,000 miles per hour, it would take you 1,000 hours to get there, or 41.66 days.
No. Four minutes after leaving the sun, the light has progressed only to an areabetween the orbits of Mercury and Venus. The journey from sun to earth at thespeed of light is about 8minutes and 20seconds.
Travel time would depend on the relative positions of Earth and Venus, as well as the speed of the spacecraft. Assuming a constant speed of 75,000 mph, it would take around 120 days to reach Venus from Earth, as the average distance between the two planets is about 25 million miles.
