Question

Light travels about 186000mi / s The function d(t) = 186000t gives the distance d(t) in miles, that light travels in t seconds. How far does light travel in 34 s?
d(34) = _ miles

Answer 1

To find how far light travels in 34 seconds, we can substitute t = 34 into the given function:

d(34) = 186000 * 34 = 6324000

Therefore, light travels 6324000 miles in 34 seconds.
