Question

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of $m$ and $n$ when the time it takes a beam of light to get from the Sun to the Earth (in s) is written in scientific notation. Note: the speed of light is approximately $3.0 \times 10^8$ m/s. Enter $m$ and $n$, separated by commas.

Step 1

We are given the average speed formula: speed = distance / time. We are also given the speed of light as $3.0 \times 10^8$ m/s. First, we need to find the distance from the Sun to the Earth. This information is not provided in the problem statement. We need to Show more…
