Answer:

Distance, d = 299.8 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of light, [tex]c=2.998\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]

Time, [tex]t=1\times 10^{-6}\ /s[/tex]

We need to find the distance covered by the light in this time. It can be calculated as :

[tex]d=c\times t[/tex]

[tex]d=2.998\times 10^8\ m/s\times 10^{-6}\ /s[/tex]

d = 299.8 meters

So, the distance covered by the light is 299.8 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
