The Venus-Sun distance is 108 million kilometers, and the Earth-Sun distance is 150 million kilometers. Suppose an imaginary line from Venus to the Sun forms a right angle with an imaginary line from Earth to the Sun.
How long would it take light to travel from the Sun to a spaceship halfway along the straight-line path between Venus and Earth?

Answer: 430297.6828056 light milliseconds

Explanation: the distance between  earth and venus is

184835061.608992 kilometers based on the model. the spacecraft would be at the halfway point which would be 92417530.804496 kilometers from earth. then, you find the midpoint of the 2 planets if they were aligned in a straight path. that would be 129000000 kilometers. then you find how fast it would take light to travel that distance. therefore you would get 430297.6828056 light milliseconds as the answer.
