The speed of light is 3 × 108 meters per second. The sun is approximately 230,000,000,000 meters from Mars. How many seconds does it take for sunlight to reach Mars? Write your answer in scientific notation using the format:

4.2x10^5

with no spaces

Round to the nearest tenth.

Do not include units (seconds) in your answer.

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Speed of light = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Distance of sun to Mars = 230,000,000 meters

How many seconds does it take for sunlight to reach Mars?

Using the relation :

Speed = distance / time

Hence ;

Time = Distance / Speed

Time = 2.3 * 10^8 / 3 * 10^8

Time = 0.766

Time = 0.8 ( nearest tenth).           (I’m in middle school btw ;)
