The distance from Earth to the moon is about 3.8 x 108 m A beam of light is sent to the moon and after it reflects returns to Earth How long did it take to make the round trip?
Lilbirde
My almanac lists the average distance from earth to moon as 384,401 km. Round trip = 768,802 km. Time = (distance) divided by (speed) = (768,802,000) / (3.8 x 108) = (7.68802 x 108) / (3.8 x 108) = 2.563 seconds (rounded)
