The ratio of light times will be the ratio of distances:
(light time to Neptune) / (light time to Mercury)
= (Neptune distance)/(Mercury distance)
= (27.93×10^8 mi)/(0.3598×10^8 mi) = 27.93/0.3598
≈ 77.6
It takes about 77.6 times as long for light to reach Neptune as it does to reach Mercury.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise you need to remember the following Trigonometric Identity:
You must observe the figure given in the exercise.
You can notice that the given triangle UVW is a Right triangle (because it has an angle that measures 90 degrees).
So, you can identify in the figure that:
Knowing these values, you can substitute them into :
Now you must evaluate:
Finally, rounding to the nearest hundreth, you get:
