Explanation:

  • The speed of light in vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. Thus when the distance varies, the time taken by light to cover those distances will also vary.

  • The distance of the Moon from the Earth is 384,400 km and thus time taken is 1.25 seconds.

  • The distance of the Sun from the Earth is 147.15 million km and thus time taken is 8 min 19 seconds.

Conclusion:

The main reason behind this variation is the distance between the two objects, namely Sun, Earth and Moon, Earth.
