How long (in seconds) does it take for a radio wave of frequency 8.94 × 106 s–1 to reach Mars when Mars is 8.2 × 107 km from Earth?
You radio wave should travel at the speed of light in vacuum $c=3xx10^8m/s$ so basically it would take (velocity=distance/time rearranged): $t=d/c=(8.2xx10^10)/(3xx10^8)=273s$ to reach Mars.

How big would the sun appear from Mars in comparison to how we see it on Earth?
The expression used for approximating angular spacing for the solar disc from a planet is 2 X inverse tangent ( radius of solar disc/sun-planet distance).

It is generally agreed that the earth's moon was formed when a Mars sized planet grazed the early earth. Is it possible that this planet was slightly bigger and that it not only formed the moon but the left over went on to end up as Mercury?
The terrestrial planetds are believed to gave have formed separately from accretion of matter at different ranges of distance from . Moreover, Mercury is so dense that astronomers are led...

If light takes 8 minutes to travel from the sun to Earth and 5 hours to travel from the sun to Pluto, what is the distance from the sun to Pluto?
Light takes about 5.5 hours to reach Pluto from . If you know the time that light takes to reach certain object, you can deduce the distance to that object...

Is the centripetal acceleration of Mars in its orbit around the Sun larger or smaller than the centripetal acceleration of the Earth?
In the solar system, the star Sun's mass is the same for all orbiters. So, the centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. The proportion...

If a planet is 13 billion kilometers from the Sun, and the distance of an Astronomical Unit (AU) is 1.496x10^8 km, how many AU is this planet from the Sun?
A planet that is 13 × 10⁹ km from the Sun is 87 AU away. 13 × 10⁹ km = ? km For this problem, we can use the conversion...
