Distance covered by the light = 3.20 km = 3200 meter

speed of the light is [tex]c = 3* 10^8 m/s[/tex]

so here time to cover the given distance

[tex]t = \frac{d}{c}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{3200}{3*10^8}[/tex]

[tex]t = 1.067 * 10^{-5}s[/tex]

as we know that

[tex]1 ns = 10^{-9} s[/tex]

So the time tocover the distance in nanosecond unit is

[tex]t = 10670 ns[/tex]
