The sun doesn't move through space in the way we might think; rather, it is the Earth that orbits around the sun. However, if we consider the apparent motion of the sun across the sky due to Earth's rotation, it moves approximately 15 degrees per hour. In terms of distance, at the equator, this translates to roughly 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers) across the sky.

How many minutes or seconds does it take for the sun to travel one degree?
The Sun appears to move across the sky at a rate of about 15 degrees per hour due to the Earth's rotation. This means it takes approximately 4 minutes for the Sun to move one degree. Therefore, it takes about 240 seconds for the Sun to travel one degree in the sky.
Do you add an hour if you travel west?
No, subtract one hour for each time zone to the West. The sun rises in the East, sets in the West, so it takes longer for the sun to get to the West. The exception would be crossing the International Dateline from East to West.
What is this number 4986595700000000000?
It is the time for light to travel 1mm, subsequently taking the speed of that to work out the speed it takes to travel to the sun in kilometers per hour.
How far does mercury travel in a half an hour?
The distance mercury travels in half an hour depends on the context, such as whether you are referring to the planet Mercury in its orbit or the flow of mercury in a thermometer. If considering the planet Mercury, it orbits the Sun at an average speed of about 47.87 km/s, covering approximately 86,000 kilometers in half an hour. In a thermometer, mercury expands and contracts but does not travel a fixed distance in a specific time period.
How long is 14 lightyears?
A 'light-year' is a distance calculated by how far light can travel in one standard year. A 'light-minute' is how far light can travel in one minute. Earth is about 8 light-minutes (93,000,000 miles) from the Sun. 14 light-years in space is going to be about 84 trillion miles, a huuuuge distance!
How fast will you have to go to get to venus in one hour?
It depends on how far we are from Venus which constantly changes as we both orbit the sun. What ever that distance is in miles when you leaves with be the MPH you'd need to travel to get there in one hour.
How many miles does a comet travel per hour?
depends on the size and how close it is to the sun. the closer to the sun and the smaller the faster. if it is small and far from the sun it will go slower. the closer to the sun the more gravitaional pull.
How far does it take for the sun to travel around the sun in 3 months?
the sun does not travel around its self
How far is Jupiter from the sun at 1000 miles per hour?
Jupiter is, on average, about 484 million miles from the sun. Traveling at a speed of 1000 miles per hour, it would take over 550 years to travel from the sun to Jupiter.
How far new canaan is from mohegan sun in Connecticut?

How far would you travel in space going at 17500 miles per hour?
In an hour, you would travel 17500 miles. At that speed it would take about 13 hours and 39 minutes to reach the Moon and about 221 days to reach the Sun.
How fast does the sun travel over the earth?
The sun does not travel over the earth. The earth turns "under" the sun. As a result, the sun appears to move across the sky a the rate of about 15 degrees per hour
Why does the earth orbit the sun and not travel far out into space?
The gravitational pull from the planets and the sun
How far can one travel to the sun without getting burnt?
I get burnt right here if I'm out in the sun for more than a few hours at a time with no protection!

If one were to travel far away from the solar system would there be enough starlight to read by?
No. If you could travel far enough to be at a suitable distance from a star, then yes, there would be the same degree of light as we receive from our sun.
