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
C real,inverted and smaller than the object
The speed of the sound in the xenon is 178 m/s. And the right option is b 178 m/s
<h3 /><h3>What is speed?</h3>
Speed can be defined as the ratio of the total distance traveled by a body to the total time taken.
To calculate the speed of the sound in the xenon, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- v = λf............. Equation 1
Where:
- v = Speed of the sound in xenon
- f = Frequency
- λ = Wavelength.
From the question,
Given:
- f = 440 Hz
- λ = 40.4 cm = 0.404 m
Substitute the values above into equation 1
- v = 440(0.404)
- v = 177.76 m/s.
- v ≈ 178 m/s
Hence, The speed of the sound in the xenon is 178 m/s. And the right option is b 178 m/s

Constellations are based off of many Greek and Roman fables. Many of their gods and beliefs are pictured in the stars, which is where we get most of our constellations. Hope this helps!
