Answer-
We know that,
- Speed of light = 3 × 10⁵ km/s
- Distance of the earth from the star = 100 × 9.5 × 10¹² km
Time taken (t)
= 100 × 9.5 × 10¹² km / 3 × 10⁵ km/s
= 316.67 × 10⁷ s

A light is the distance that light travels in vacuum in one year. If a star is at a distance of 100 light years then it would take light, 100years to reach earth.
Therefore, after 100 years the explosion will be visible to people on earth.
