Time taken for star to reach Earth = 7.5 years
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
7.5 light years(distance Earth-star)
Required
Time taken
Solution
Speed of light=v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
1 light years = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m= distance(d)
So time taken for 1 light years :
time(t) = distance(d) : speed(v)
t = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m : 3 x 10⁸ m/s
t = 3.154 x 10⁷ s = 1 years
So for 7.5 light years, time taken = 7.5 years
Velocity and mass are directly proportional to the quantity of momentum by:
p = mv. Therefore, and increase in either velocity or mass will lead to an increase in momentum and vice versa. Momentum during a reaction is always conserved, meaning that the mass and initial velocity before a reaction will always be equal to the change in mass and velocity produced after the reaction. Kinetic energy after a reaction, however, is not always conserved. For example if a fast moving vehicle collided with a stationary vehicle, and moved together, the overall kinetic energy would be after the reaction, as a heaver mass would be moved by the same velocity causing a decrease in kinetic energy.
I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but in physics this is how it is understood.
