Explanation:
The speed of light is 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s
We need to find the distance traveled by it in one day.
1 day = 24 hours
1 day = 24 × 3600 seconds
= 86400 s
Now, using the formula of speed to find the distance covered as follows :
Putting all the values, we get :
Hence, light will cover of distance in one day.
