Given that light travels approximately 186282 miles per second ( in a vacum ). how far is a parsec? show the intermediate steps of your computation.

Question

hunus · Answer

Light's speed is 
$$c = 186282\frac{miles}{second}$$
The distance d between the sun and the earth is

$$d = 93000000 miles=9.3x10^7miles$$

Speed is given by the equation s = distance/time

We need time so time = distance/speed

Think you can solve it from here?

Also when you solve the equation for time it will be in seconds so you will need to convert it to minutes

please show me the work..

hunus · Answer

I can write a program really quick to find out but I'm not sure how to do that manually

anonymous · Answer

i need your help

With what?

anonymous · Answer

by solving this problem :)

hunus · Answer

Okay

var f_1 = 1;
var f_2 = 1;
var i = 2;
var f_current = 0;
var f_numbers = [f_1, f_2];

while(f_current < 10000){
    f_current = f_numbers[i-2] + f_numbers[i-1];
    f_numbers.push(f_current);
    i += 1;
}

for(i=0; i<f_numbers.length; i++){
    if(f_numbers[i] >= 10000){
        console.log(f_numbers[i]);
    }else{
        continue;
    }
}

Well this is the program I wrote and it gives the number 10946
