Given:
Time taken for the eye blink = 0.350 s
Let's find how far does light in a vacuum travel in that time.
To find the distance, apply the formula:
[tex]x=c*t[/tex]Where:
x is the distance
c is the speed of light = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s
t is the time taken = 0.350 s
Thus. we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=3.0\times10^8*0.350 \\ \\ x=105000000\approx1.05\times10^8\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the distance light in a vacuum travels in that time is 1.05 x 10⁸ m.
• ANSWER:
1.05 x 10⁸ m
