Easy one you just take the distance of the newly discovered planet (Xena, also called Sedna) and divide it by the speed of light.
That is 8400 million km divided by 300000 km/sec and that
= 84000/3
= 28000 seconds
If you want it in minutes then,
= 28000/60
= 2800/6
= 466 minutes and 40 seconds
Earth takes only 8.5 minutes to recieve the rays.
There are many solar lights out there which are put outside in the sunlight and store the light or the energy of the sun. But how is it converted into light? And why is it that they only work at night? Thanks
The sunlight is converted to electrical energy and stored in a rechargable battery. When the sun goes down a sensor turns on the light. The stored energy is then used to power the light.

Why they didnt often use light hours to measure distances outside the solar system? help I need the Answer right now ????/???
"
The nearest star is around 4 light years away. This relatively short distance would result in a massively long number if you used light hours, and forget about using them to measure the distance to other galaxies, the nearest one being 300 million light years away.

I have bought a solar light for my greenhouse. Does the solar panel have to be fitted outside or can I place it inside the greenhouse. It will get masses of sun inside.
Outside is better, but it is not required. As long as the IR and UV rays of the sun can reach the panel,,, you are in business.
I just bought some outdoor solar lights I put them outside around 5:45pm and now it’s dark outside and they are not lighting up. Do they need more sunlight? I don’t understand why they aren’t working
nevermind i got them working. I had to pull the top off and turn the switch on thanks though
you need to pull the little piece of plastic out between the battery and terminal
Some are made from materials that rust some are made from material that does not rust. In either case both will charge on a gloomy day. They are made for the outdoors. If you have snow you must keep the snow off the unit to allow the light to charge the panel.
i need to find some and amber and some purple solar lights for outside at good prices

The description is:
Malibu 10 pack stainless steel LED solar light kit. Its bright white LED and no wiring required.
I’m thinking of putting these in the front and back yard, next to the plants where there’s a walkway. Is that good? Is that what its meant for?
I use them all over my back and front yard to light walkways (and to spy on the dogs at night when I let them outside). The solar lights have to be placed where they receive adequate sun during the day for optimal light at night. They are not as bright as the electric ones, so you need more spaced closely together so you don’t get dark spots. If you place them near plants, you have to check them now and again to see whether the plant is obstructing the sun and prune it back if it is. The price OSH is offering them for is reasonable and I think you will be happier with the stainless if you treat it with the Zep stainless steel cleaner and protector first. The stainless ones tend to get a lot of water spots and get cloudy and crusty on the surface if you don’t. Zep applied a couple of times of year keeps them looking brand new.
