Minutes are a unit of time, not of distance. Perhaps you mean LIGHT minutes, which refer to the distance light travels in a minute. Earth is 1 AU from the sun, which takes light about 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Mars is about 1.5 AU, so when earth and Mars are on the same side of the sun, the distance between them is 0.5 AU. Light would take four minutes, 10 seconds to cross that gap. When Mars and Earth are on opposite sides of the sun, the distance between them is 2.5 AU, which would take light nearly 21 minutes to cross.
On average, Earth and Mars would be at roughly right angles to the sun, so you could use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance of their hypotenuse: About 1.8 AU. I'll leave the conversion of this into light time as an exercise for the gentle reader.
Mars is roughly 1.5 Astronomical Units (AU) from the Sun (1 AU is the distance from the Sun to the Earth). In ball park estimates, it takes 8 minutes for light to travel 1 AU. So when Mars is at the closest to Earth at 0.5 AU, Mars is 4 light minutes from Earth. The farthest distance Mars is from Earth is 2.5 AU, when Mars is on the other side of the Sun from Earth (1 AU from Earth to the Sun + 1.5 AU from the Sun to Mars). At that distance Mars is 20 light minutes from earth.
Around 32 and 2/3 light minutes away.
Light minutes is approximately 18 million kilometers away. The distance from Earth to Jupiter is 588 million kilometers away. Divide these two numbers and you get your answer.
About 8 minutes and 33 seconds (See details below)
A light minute is 186,000*60=11,160,000 miles a second *seconds in a min equalling 11,160,000 a light minute
It is 8.33 minutes to reach the sun at light speed which is 1AU away (about 92-94 million miles away) light travels at 186,000 miles a second.
186,000*60=11,160,000 miles a minute
92,000,000/11,160,000=8.2437 min
94,000,000/11,160,000=8.4229 min
8.2437+8.4229=16.6666/2=8.33 min is the mean time for light to reach the sun from earth or earth to the sun.
Because both planets orbit the Sun in an elliptical pattern, the closest distance between Earth and Mars is estimated to be 54.6 million km (about 0.000005771 light years), when Mars is at its closest point in its orbit to Sun and the farthest distance between Earth and Mars is estimated to be 401 million km (about 0.000042385 light years), when both planets are on opposite sides of the Sun.
this is 1,200 light seconds from earth. Considering Mars at 20 light minutes from Earth, 20 minutes x 60 seconds / minute = 1,200 light seconds.
48,600,000 miles
16 light minutes away
i know the answer bro
Mars is 35,000,000 miles from Earth and 141,600,000 miles from the Sun.
a day on mars is 24 hours, 39 minutes and 35 seconds compared to earth.
one earth minute = one mars minute in other word, one minute is one minute everywhere in the universe, same as one second. but one earth day would be different from one mars day as the we use the time it take the earth to finish one rotation as one earth day.
It's a 5 minute walk if you don't dawdle.
Approx. 46 million miles

Mars is 35,000,000 miles from Earth and 141,600,000 miles from the Sun.
l
Mars is 36,000,000 miles from Earth and no Mars is the fourth planet from the sun(Mars is right beside us) Sun.......... Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto
Mars is 48.7 million miles from Earth, on average.
Pittsburgh is approximately 20 minutes from Mars Pennsylvania.
Mars is so far away in fact that it takes radio signals quite a long time to get from the spacecraft back to Earth. During Curiosity EDL, this delay will be 13 minutes, 48 seconds, about mid-way between the minimum delay of around 4 minutes and the maximum of around 24 minutes.
a day on mars is 24 hours, 39 minutes and 35 seconds compared to earth.
one earth minute = one mars minute in other word, one minute is one minute everywhere in the universe, same as one second. but one earth day would be different from one mars day as the we use the time it take the earth to finish one rotation as one earth day.
Almost exactly as long as Earth takes (Earth is 23 hours and about 58 minutes). Mars is 24 hours and 38 minutes.

250 million miles far from earth
