Higher frequencies are present in more dramatic events and have thus been the first to be noticed, but the frequencies of ordinary gravitational waves are relatively low and considerably more difficult to detect.

A gamma-ray burst (GRB), which was discovered by the orbiting Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor on 2017 August 17 at 12:41:06 UTC, triggered an automatic notice throughout the world in addition to a merger of black holes. Six minutes later, a gravitational-wave observatory in Hanford, Washington, detected a gravitational-wave candidate that occurred 2 seconds before the gamma-ray explosion.

This collection of data supports the merger of two neutron stars, as shown by a multi-messenger transient event that was detected by gravitational waves as well as electromagnetic (gamma-ray burst, optical, and infrared) spectrum observations.

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the speed of light is 3.0  108 m/s. in kilometers, how far is the earth fr
Flura [38]
To determine the distance of the light that has traveled given the time it takes to travel that distance, we need a relation that would relate time with distance. In any case, it would be the speed of the motion or specifically the speed of light that is travelling which is given as 3x10^8 meters per second. So, we simply multiply the time to the speed. Before doing so, we need to remember that the units should be homogeneous. We do as follows:

distance = 3x10^8 m/s ( 8.3 min ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) = 1.494x10^11 m

Since we are asked for the distance to be in kilometers, we convert

distance = 1.494x10^11 m ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 149400000 km
