Answer:
d = 0.479 m
Explanation:
Given that,
The distance light travels in = 1.6 ns
The speed of light is [tex]2.998\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]
The speed of an object is given by distance traveled divided by time.
[tex]c=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\d=ct\\\\d=2.998\times 10^8\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\\\\=0.479\ m[/tex]
Hence, the required distance is 0.479 m.
