Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. the radiation coming from the sun travels at 300,000 km/s. how long does it take for radiation from the sun to reach earth?

It takes exactly 500 seconds for the sun's radiation to reach the earth or about 8 minutes (8.333333333333... to be exact). Just divide 150 million km by 300,000 km/s. Hope this helps

You would be correct, boiling water does disinfect contamination.    the property of disinfecting means to kill  germs, bacteria and other pathogens or contamination  that might cause an infection or cause a person to become sickly. a couple methods of disinfecting are using soap, other cleaning supplies or by simply "boiling" the contaminate.  the reason why boiling water disinfects certain attributes is because some cells cannot survive the heat and pressure.
