That rather depends on where Neptune is in it's orbit. Neptune orbits the Sun at an average distance of 4.5 billion km. Let's use this average distance as our basis.
The speed at which light propagates through a vacuum is 299,792,458 meters per second. Let's state that in terms of kilometers per second. 299,792.458 km per second.
4,500,000,000 km can be chopped up into 299,792.25 km chunks... let's see... a total of 15,010 times. Each of those chunks represents one second of travel.
That is 15,010 seconds for light to get from the sun to Neptune. That's about 4 hours and 10 minutes. Quite a long drive if you ask me!
What else can I help you with?
How long would it take the satellite to reach Neptune?
How long it would take to get to Neptune from Earth would depend on the path chosen and on where Neptune and Earth were in their orbits when the mission was launched. For example, the Voyager 2 spacecraft was launched on Aug 20, 1977 and it reached Neptune on Aug 24, 1989. So, Voyager 2 took about twelve years to reach Neptune.
If technology allows us to travel at 500000000 kmhr through space how long would it take us to reach Neptune from Earth?
The closest distance of earth and neptune is 4.301 billion kilometers and the farthest distance of earth and neptune is 4.553 billion kilometers. So, the time to reach Neptune ranges from 8.602 hours to 9.106 hours.

How long did it take the space shuttle to get to Neptune?
There have been no space shuttle landings on Neptune. It would be impossible to land on Neptune for two reasons: 1 - Neptune is a gas giant 2 - Neptune is freezing cold, electronic equipment would freeze and malfunction
What has wavelengths between one thousandth and 700 billionths of a meter?
They are infrared waves! ^__^
What electromagnetic waves would you expect to produce a photoelectric effect radio waves infrared waves ultraviolet waves X rays or gamma rays?
ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays would all do that
What would you need to take with you to get to Neptune safely?
Spacesheep is needed to reach Neptune safely.
How does the wavelength of infrared compared the wavelength of ultraviolet waves?
Wavelength of infra red would be greater than that of ultra violet waves.
What are four types of radiation from the sun?
The four types of radiation from the sun are visible light, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, infrared radiation, and radio waves. These types of radiation are emitted by the sun and travel through space to reach Earth. Each type of radiation has different properties and impacts on the Earth's environment.
Can you see ultraviolet waves?
No you cannot. An example of those waves would be those released by the sun and you cannot see those.

What is the topography of Neptune?
Neptune'sTopography, well since Neptune is just a giant ball of water, there really isn't a surface, once you would enter Neptune, you would go through miles of clouds to reach the surface, which would really be the Core of the planet
How long would it take sound waves to reach Pluto?
Sound waves can't travel through space.

What type of electromagnetic wave has highest energy a ultraviolet wave or an infrared wave?
Infrared radiation has a lower frequency than optical light as it is below the red end of the spectrum. "Infra" means below, making "infrared" meaning "below red. On the other hand, ultraviolet radiation has a higher frequency than optical light as it is above the violet end of the spectrum. "Ultra" means "above or greater", making ultraviolet meaning "above violet". The answer to your question would be: ultraviolet radiation has more electromagnetic energy than infrared radiation.
