The speed of light is about 3.00 × 105 km/s. It takes approximately 1.28 seconds for light reflected from the
moon to reach Earth. What is the average distance from Earth to the moon?


Sagot :

Just to correct you - the speed of light is 3.0 x 10^5 km/sec and not 105 km/sec as given by you (maybe it was just a typing mistake from your end).

The average distance between earth and moon would be - 384,000 kms. 

This is calculated by the formula -> Distance = Speed x Time.
