When Mars is as close to Earth as it can possibly be, and if it were possible to travel

in a straight line all the way there, the trip would take you about 72 million kilometers.

The distance would not depend on your speed.

How long would it take to travel to from earth to sun?

It would take about 18.5 hours to travel from Earth to the Sun at the speed of light, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second. This distance is approximately 93 million miles (150 million kilometers).


What is the speed of light energy?

the speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second. and if you ask about how far the sun is from earth that would be 150,000,000 kilometers so in calculation that would mean it would take just about 8 minutes and 17 seconds for the suns light and heat to travel to the earth. now imagine the earth without the o-zone layer we would be fried like mercury. ☺


How many seconds would it take to travel to the sun if you traveled at the speed of light when the radius of the earth is 6371 km equals 3960 mi?

The distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 93 million miles (about 150 million kilometers). At the speed of light, it would take light 500 seconds to travel this distance. This is because light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second or 299,792 kilometers per second.


How long would it take electricity to travel from the earth to the moon?

I would imagine the speed of Electricity in a bolt of lightening is very close to that of light ... light travels at 187000 mph...The moon is 238,857 miles from earth. If you divide the speed of light from the distance to the moon, you get about 1.27 hours (1 hour, 16 minutes, and 20 seconds


Why is 12000 lunar orbits the speed of light?

The speed of light is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. The number of lunar orbits required to cover this distance would be 12000 because the circumference of the Moon's orbit around the Earth is about 10,000 kilometers. Multiplying this by 12000 gives an approximate value close to the speed of light.


How long would it take to travel at the speed of light from Earth to Aldebaran?

It would take approximately 65 years to travel at the speed of light from Earth to Aldebaran, which is about 65 light-years away. However, currently, we do not have the technology to travel at the speed of light.


How long would it take to travel around earth?

That will obviously depend on the speed. Assume some convenient speed, then divide the circumference (which is about 40,000 kilometers) by that speed. If the circumference is in kilometers, and the speed in kilometers/hour, the time will be in hours.


How much time would pass on Earth if I traveled at the speed of light for a year?

If you were to travel at the speed of light for a year, no time would pass for you, but approximately one year would pass on Earth.


What fraction of a speed of light?

A fraction of the speed of light can range from 0 to just under 1. For example, half the speed of light would be 0.5c, a quarter would be 0.25c, and so on. The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second.


What is the distance from the sun to Earth in hours?

Distance can't be measured in time units unless we know the speed. At the speed of light, the Sun is about 8 1/3 light minutes from Earth. At US interstate highway speed, it's a very long time indeed (at 100 kilometers per hour, it would take you over 170 years to get there).


How many kilometers does the light travel?

If there is an unobstructed path, it can continue traveling practically forever.


How many days is it from the earth to the sun?

If you could travel from Earth to the Sun without stopping at a speed of 1000 kilometers per hour, then it would take you 17 years!
