Best Answer

138 seconds ± ~53 seconds.

Since the orbit of Venus is on a different path than the orbit of the Earth, the time that it takes for the light to become visible on Earth from Venus actually varies, but not by too much. 2 minutes and 18 seconds is only at one point in the year, but the distance from Earth to Venus varies so one can also conclude that the time it takes light to reach Earth from Venus varies directly with the time as well.

So, the time it takes for the sun is 138 seconds ± ~53 seconds depending on where the planets are in their orbit.

It depends on how fast you are travelling.


How long does it take in minutes for light to reach Venus from the Sun a distance of 1.126 108 km?

That is definitely not the correct distance between Sun and Venus. Once you get the correct distance in kilometers, divide it by the speed of light (300,000 kilometers/second), to get the time in seconds. Or you can do it this way. It takes light about 500 seconds to reach Earth from the Sun. Venus is at about 0.723 times the distance of Earth from the Sun. So it takes light about 0.723 x 500 seconds to get to Venus from the Sun. That gives the answer as 6.025 minutes. So, rounded, the answer is 6 minutes. Incidentally, the distance of Venus from the Sun is about 108.2 million kilometers.

How long does it take to get to Venus from Earth in a jet?

At the furthest, Venus is 261 million kilometers from Earth. The Airbus A380 has a cruising speed of about 290 meters per second. So the A380 would take 10417 days, or 28.52 years to reach Venus.
