the distance between the sun and moon is 480 light second. convert the distance into meter


Sagot :

Answer:

1.439 × 10¹¹ m is the answer.

Explanation:

1 light-second = 2.998 × 10⁸m

480 light-seconds = 480 × 2.998 × 10⁸

= 1439.04 × 10⁸

= 1.439 × 10¹¹

∴ 1.439 × 10¹¹ m is the answer.

The distance converted into the meter will be 1.439×10¹¹ m.In one light second, there are 2.998 ×10⁸ m.

What is the distance?

Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two objects or locations.

The distance can refer to a physical length or an estimate based on other factors in physics or common use. |AB| is a symbol for the distance between two points A and B.

The given data in the problem is;

The  distance between the sun and moon is,d= 480 light second

[tex]\rm d_m[/tex] is the distance in meter

As we know,

[tex]\rm 1\ light\ second = 2.998 \times 10^8m \\\\ 480\ light\ seconds = 480 \times 2.998 \times 10^8\ m \\\\ d_m= 1439.04 \times 10^8 \\\\ d_m = 1.439 \times 10^{11}[/tex]

Hence the distance converted into the meter will be 1.439×10¹¹ m.
