1. First, we need to calculate the speed of the Sun as it revolves around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. We can use the formula: v = 2πr/T where v is the speed, r is the distance from the center, and T is the time for one revolution. Plugging in the values, we get: v = 2π(30,000 ly) / (200 million years) v = 235 km/s Step 2/4 2.
