Answer:

[tex]135 \mu m[/tex]

Explanation:

The distance traveled by electromagnetic radiation is given by:

[tex]d=vt[/tex]

where

v is the speed of the radiation

t is the time elapsed

Electromagnetic radiation travels at the speed of light, which is equal to:

[tex]v=c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s[/tex]

The time elapsed in this problem is

[tex]t=0.45 ps=0.45\cdot 10^{-12} s[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we find

[tex]d=(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)(0.45\cdot 10^{-12} s)=1.35\cdot 10^{-4} m[/tex]

which corresponds to [tex]135 \mu m[/tex]
