How long would it take light from the sun to reach pluto?

Speed of light 300,000KM/sec. You will get 4.16 hours or 250 minutes.

The 5-sd average distance of Uranus from is $2872.5 X 10^6 km=2.8725 X 10^9$. One light second distance in 5-sd is $2.9979 X 10^5 km$ The answer is...

Divide this by 300,000. We get 79.3 seconds. 300,000 speed of light in vacuum.

Pluto is farthest dwarf planet,It is in elliptical orbit distances. varies from 49.3 AU to 29.62 AU.

Use $v=sqrtmu((2/r)-(1/a))$, perihelion = $a(1-e)$ and aphelion $= a(1+e)$. Here e = 0.25, approximately. Now, for any planet, the ratio of the speeds at perihelion and aphelion becomes $sqrt((1+e)/(1-e))$ and...

5.5 Light hours = 0.000627424 Light years 1 Light Year = 9.4 x $10^12$ km 0.000627424 Light Years = 0.000627424 * 9.4 x $10^12$ 0.000627424 Light Years = 5.89 x...

This is calculated using the following formula. z = c * t Where, z is the distance to the object. c is the speed of light. t is the time...

The distances vary from 29.6 AU to 49.3 AU.Taking average as 39.5 we can calculate the time. Light travels 300000 kilometers/sec. The answer comes to be about 5.5 hours.

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...

The stationary point in-between Sun and Pluto is distant r1 from Sun and r2 from Pluto, The average of r1 + r2 = the semi-minor axis of the planet's...
