The velocity of the light in vacuum is 3*108 m/sec.
Therefore the distance covered by one tropical year is 3*108 m/sec *365*24*60*60
=3.15 * 107 * 3 * 108= 9.15 * 10^15 m
Velocity in other mediums is less due to the presence of friction in the air. In fact, light travelling in vacuum s the fastest element moving on the planet and it travels great distance in a tropical year.
