light travels a speed of 1.86 x 10^5. it takes light from the sun about 4.8 x 10^3 seconds to Saturn. find the approximate distance from Sun to Saturn. Enter you’re answer in scientific notation.

Respuesta :

The distance is the product between the speed and the time elapsed, so we have

[tex]1.86 \times 10^5\cdot 4.8 \times 10^3=(1.86\cdot 4.8)\times 10^{5+3}=8.928\times 10^8[/tex]
