Answer:

Distance [tex]=9.46\times 10^{15}m[/tex]

Explanation:

We have given total time 1 year = 365 days

We know that 1 day =24 hour

So 365 days =365×24 =8760 hour

In 1 hour 3600 sec

So 8760 hour = 8760×3600 [tex]=3.1536\times 10^7 sec[/tex]

Speed of light [tex]c=3\times 10^8m/sec[/tex]

We know that distance = speed ×time [tex]=3.1536\times 10^7\times 3\times 10^8=9.46\times 10^{15}m[/tex]
