That's aproximately the distance sound travels in one second, in air. Since light travels at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, the answer is, approximately 300,000 kilometers.
Light travels a distance of one light year in one year.
Light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum. In one day, light can travel a distance of approximately 5.88 trillion miles.
Light travels at a speed of approximately 30 centimeters per picosecond in a vacuum.
Light travels at a slower speed in glass compared to vacuum. The ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in glass is called the refractive index of glass. So, the distance light travels in glass would be the distance it travels in vacuum divided by the refractive index of glass.
Light travels at a constant velocity, no matter what time it is given to travel. Light would travel at exactly 299,792,458 ms-1 in five minutes, but only in a vacuum.
Light travels a distance of one light year in one year.
A "Light year" is a distance. It's the distance light travels in one year, in vacuum.5,878,450,000,000 miles (rounded)
Light years is a measure for distance, the distance light travels in one year. For the light to travel 587 light years, it takes 587 years.
A light year is a measure of distance not time. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. So for light to travel 6,300 light years, would take 6,300 years
In a vacuum, light will travel 299,792,458 meters in one second.
Light travels at the speed of 186,000 miles per second. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. It takes 8 minutes for light to travel from the sun to the earth.
No. A light year is the distance light travels in a year, and nothing can travel faster than light. Therefore, the quickest that anything could travel a light year is 1 year. A comet travels much slower than light.
In 4 years light will travel approx 23.5 trillion miles.
I assume you are talking about distance in lightspeed. Well the distance is the same, regardless how it travels, but the time it takes for light to travel from the sun to Earth is 8.3 minutes, and it travels 93 million miles at avarage. (It varies)
It means it has taken light 130 years to travel the distance. Light travels 5,878,630,000,000 miles in 1 year, so something 130 light years away, is a LONG way away.
Your question seems to suggest that you think a "light year"is a length of time. It's not.It's a distance ... the distance light travels in a year.The distance is about 5,878,450,000,000 miles.I cannot travel nearly that far in one year.
Light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum. In one day, light can travel a distance of approximately 5.88 trillion miles.
