Hi, Experts please help me with this question An Earth-sized planet is found to be 9 light-years away from the Earth. If you are
traveling in a spaceship with a speed 22 km/s, then how much time will you take to
reach that planet?

Dear Student
1 Light year = 9.46 X 10¹² Km(approx)
Total distance = 9.46 X 10¹² X 9 = 85.14 X 10¹²
(as 9 light year are given
Speed(Km/s)= 22 X 60 X 60 = 79200 Km/s
Approximate Time taken to reach the planet= (85.14 X 10¹²)/ 79200
Regards
= 1075000000 Hours or 44791666.666667 days or 122716.8949 years
