93 million miles = 9.3x10 7 miles. 186,000 miles/sec = 1.86x10 5 miles/sec. Dimensional analysis: 9.3x10 7 miles x 1 sec/1.86x10 5 miles = 5x10 2 seconds = 500 seconds . So, it take about 500 seconds for light from sun to reach earth. Converting to minutes: 500 seconds x 1 minute/60 seconds = 8.33 minutes for light to reach earth (this is = to ...

Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com (22740) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming you mean: what is 186,282 MILES per second into meters per second? (the speed of light?) : the miles to km conversion, multiply by 1.609, multiply the result by 1000 to get met/sec : 186282 * 1.609 * 1000 = 299,727,738 meters/sec.
The equation of a hyperbola is. (x/a)² - (y/b)² = 1. The two vertices are separated by 2a=k=186 miles, so that a=93 miles. To find b, we use the well-known relationship for a hyperbola, c²=a²+b², where c is the position of one of the foci, in this case c=150. Therefore, b²=150²-93², b=118 miles.

Black N. asked • 10/25/18 Light Travels at a speed of 1.86 x 10^5 miles per second. If a light year is the distance that light travels in one year how many miles are in a light year?
Convert miles/hour to nanometer/second. For miles, we need to convert to nanometers. Here is what that will look like: miles to feet to inches to centimeters to nanometers . 1 mi = 5280 ft; 1 ft = 12 in; 1 in = 2.54 cm; 1 cm = 1x10 7 nm. For hours, we need to convert to seconds. Here is what that will look like: hours, minutes, seconds
The distance from the earth to the sun is about 93 million miles. Find how long it takes for a light ray from the sun to reach the earth. Algebra -> Customizable Word Problem Solvers -> Travel -> SOLUTION: The speed of light is about 186,000 mi/s.
a cheetah was timed running 200 yards in 6 seconds. What was its average speed in miles per hour? you must first do the conversion from yards/second to miles/hour. Then your problem is solved. 1 yard = 3 feet 600 yards=1800feet 1800 feet in 6 seconds so in 1 second the cheetah runs 1800/6 = 300 feet /second.... convert 300 feet/second to miles ...
30 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon of gas. During one particular week, the two cars went a combined total of 1675 miles, for a total gas consumption of 50 gallons. How many gallons were consumed by each of the two cars that week?
