✒ ᴛʜɪs ϙᴜᴇsᴛɪᴏɴ ᴄᴀɴ ʙᴇ sᴏʟᴠᴇᴅ ᴜsɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ ᴄʟᴀssɪᴄ ᴇϙᴜᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴏғ ᴍᴏᴛɪᴏɴ: ᴅɪsᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ = ᴠᴇʟᴏᴄɪᴛʏ * ᴛɪᴍᴇ. ᴡᴇ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ᴛᴡᴏ ᴋɴᴏᴡɴ ᴘᴀʀᴀᴍᴇᴛᴇʀs ᴀɴᴅ ᴏɴᴇ ᴜɴᴋɴᴏᴡɴ ᴘᴀʀᴀᴍᴇᴛᴇʀ; ʜᴏᴡᴇᴠᴇʀ, ɪɴ ᴏʀᴅᴇʀ ᴛᴏ sᴏʟᴠᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘʀᴏʙʟᴇᴍ ᴡᴇ ᴍᴜsᴛ ғɪʀsᴛ ʀᴇᴀʀʀᴀɴɢᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴇϙᴜᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴛᴏ sᴏʟᴠᴇ ғᴏʀ ᴛɪᴍᴇ: ᴛɪᴍᴇ = ᴅɪsᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ / ᴠᴇʟᴏᴄɪᴛʏ.

ᴅɪsᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ = 1.5x10^11ᴍ

ᴠᴇʟᴏᴄɪᴛʏ = 3.0x10^8 ᴍ/s

sᴜʙsᴛɪᴛᴜᴛɪɴɢ ɪɴᴛᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴇϙᴜᴀᴛɪᴏɴ:
