How long does it take reflected sunlight to each the earth from the moon?

It follows from the task content that the time required for the reflected sunlight to reach the earth can be evaluated if the speed of light is known in which case, the speed of light, c = 3× 10⁸ m/s.

Consequently, we have time taken, t evaluated as follows;

Time taken, t = distance/speed

t = 3.85 ×10⁵ × 10³/3× 10⁸

t = 3.85/3

t = 1.28 seconds.
