If a flare occurs on the Sun 3.5 astronomical units away, how much time would pass before a robot at that distance sees the light flash? You have to use the relationship between the distance of the Sun and the speed of light… you can use the light travel time to Earth and scale it by the astronomical distance. Show work
Please show and explain how to solve this, Thank you.

The astronomical unit "light year" is the di 3.0x10* m/s. If a galaxy is 200 light years away from the earth then, in meters, how far is it? Hint: How far the light will travel in one year? How about 200 light years? stance traveled by light in one earth year and the speed of light is about d- (distance speed multiplied by time) yce Jeong spring-2019 Module 1 Homework

4. How much time does it take for light from the sun to reach the earth? (The distance between the sun and the earth is, on average, 1.50 x 10 m. The speed of light in vacuum is 3.00 x 10° m/s.) 5. You drop a 1.00-kg lead ball from a height of 2.50 meters. How much times does it take for the ball to hit the ground?

How far away is the Moon at apogee if a reflected beam of light takes 2.70 seconds to travel from Earth to the Moon and back? The speed of light is c=3x108 m/s. (Hint: You need to use the definition for the average speed of an object and DON’T FORGET THAT THE TIME GIVEN IN THE PROBLEM IS THE TIME THAT THE BEAM OF LIGHT TRAVELS TWICE THE DISTANCE FROM EARTH TO THE MOON.)

You send a flash of light toward the Moon. It bounces off a mirror and returns to you. You measure the time between when you sent the flash and when it returns to you and find that the whole process took 2.0 seconds. The distance to the Moon is (state your answer in kilometers and list the answer with at least three significant figures.) You can use 3x108 m/s as the speed of light (feel free to google this quantity...

1) The Solar and Sidereal days difer from each other by about 4 minutes. How much distance, relative to the Sun and in km, does the Earth travel during that time? (You may approximate the Earth's orbit as a perfect circle.) 2) How many degrees does the Moon move in its orbit during one Earth-day. Use the Moon's orbital period relative to distant stars, i.e. use its sidereal period. 3) a) Since the Earth makes one full revolution every 24...

In Astronomy we often deal with distances, or lengths, that range form the very small to the very large. For instance The size of a nucleus is roughly 0.000, 000,000,000,001 meters and the distance to the nearest star is roughly 700,000,000,000 meters.
