How far will light travel in 5 seconds seconds if its speed is 186,000 per second?
answer should be 930,000 per second
Right!
There are 12 inches in one foot. How many feet and inches are there in 2650 inches.
divide 12 into 2,650 inches?
Right again!
To find out how far light will travel in 5 seconds, you need to multiply its speed by the time elapsed. In this case, the speed of light is given as 186,000 miles per second, and the time is 5 seconds.
To calculate the distance, you can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
Distance = 186,000 miles/second × 5 seconds
Calculating this multiplication, we get:
Distance = 930,000 miles per second
Therefore, light will travel approximately 930,000 miles in 5 seconds.
