How long would it take to travel 10 light years at the speed of light?
Vladimir79 [104]

A light year is the DISTANCE light travels through vacuum in 1 year.

If light is traveling through vacuum, then it's traveling at the speed of light in vacuum. If a student at home at the beginning of the trip is holding the clock, then ...

Traveling 1 light year takes 1 year.

Traveling 2 light years takes 2 years.

Traveling 3 light years takes 3 years.

Traveling 10 light years takes 10 years.

If the light is traveling through some other substance, or if the clock is traveling along with the light, then these numbers all change.

YOU cannot travel at the speed of light. We have to just leave it at that

A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, heading due north at 8.00 m/s relative to the water. The local ocean current i
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth V = 9.05 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The local ocean current is  = 1.52 m/s

Direction \theta = 40°

Velocity component in X - direction V_{x} = 1.52 \cos 40°

V_{x} = 1.164 \frac{m}{s}

Velocity component in Y - direction V_{y} = 8 + 1.52 \sin 40°

V_{y} = 8.97 \frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth

V = \sqrt{V_{x}^{2} + V_{y} ^{2}  }

Put the values of V_{x} and V_{y} we get,

⇒ V = \sqrt{1.164^{2} + 8.97 ^{2}  }

⇒ V = 9.05 \frac{m}{s}

This is the velocity of the ship relative to the earth.
