If 1 AU equals 8.3 light minutes is mars from the sun?
Mars is on average about 1.5 AU from the Sun. This means that Mars is approximately 12.45 light minutes away from the Sun.
What is the round-trip travel time of light from Earth to Jupiter at the minimum Earth-Jupiter distance of 4.2 AU?
Light travels 1 AU in about 8 minutes 20 seconds (8.33 minutes). Therefore 8.4 AU takes about 8.4 x 8.33 minutes. That's 69.97 minutes. So, the answer is: about 70 minutes, or an hour and ten minutes.
What is the distance from Ceres to the sun in light minutes?
Ceres is less than 5 AU from the sun, an AU being an Astronomical Unit. The equivalent of one AU is 93.000.000 miles, or 149.668.992 kilometers, so about 465.000.000 miles, or 748.344.960 kilometers!
What is the speed of light in AU per hour?
Oh boy ! (186,282 mi/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (1 AU / 93,000,000 mi) = (186,282 x 3,600 / 93,000,000) (mi - sec - AU / sec - hr - mi) = 7.211 AU/hr (rounded) Now what are you going to do with that number ??
How long would a radar signal take to complete a round-trip between Earth and Mars when the two planets are 0.6 AU apart?
One AU is 148,597,871 km, so 0.7 AU is 104,718,510 km. The velocity of light and other electromagnetic radiations in free space is 299,792.458 km/second, so the time for the round trip is (2 * 104,718,510 / 299,792.458) seconds - or 698.6 seconds (11 minutes, 38.6 seconds.)
How many Au is 1000 light years?
They really are not comparable. Light travels 186,000 miles per second, and one AU is about 8.3 light-MINUTES. You can probably do the math, from minutes to hours to days to years as well as I can. Or, you could google "1000 light years in AU" and get the answer
How many astronomical units are in 6.0 light minutes?
That's about 0.72 AU.
How many light minutes does it take from Uranus to the sun?
On average Uranus is about 19.2 AU from the Sun, this equates to about 160 light minutes or 2.6 hours
If 1 AU equals 8.3 light minutes is mars from the sun?
Mars is on average about 1.5 AU from the Sun. This means that Mars is approximately 12.45 light minutes away from the Sun.
Which is longer a light year or an astronomical unit?
A light year is much bigger, an AU is only about 8 light minutes.1 light year = 63,240 AU
What is the round-trip travel time of light from Earth to Jupiter at the minimum Earth-Jupiter distance of 4.2 AU?
Light travels 1 AU in about 8 minutes 20 seconds (8.33 minutes). Therefore 8.4 AU takes about 8.4 x 8.33 minutes. That's 69.97 minutes. So, the answer is: about 70 minutes, or an hour and ten minutes.
How many light years in an AU?
1 AU = 0.0000158 light-years
How many times 1 light-year is greater that 1 AU?
