If the speed of light is 3.0xx10^(8) ms^...

If the speed of light is `3.0xx10^(8) ms^(-1)`, calculate the distance covered by light in 2.00 ns.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`2 ns = 2.00xx10^(-8)s`
Distance `= "speed " xx "time"`
`=3xx10^(8) ms^(-1) xx 2.0 xx 10^(-9)s`.
`=6.0xx10^(-1) m = 0.6 m`
