In which step of the scientific method would a scientist make use of graphs

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the velocity is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. how far is earth from the sun? i know how to get to d = (3 x 10^8 m/s)(498 sec). i just don't know how to get from there to the answer being 1.5 x 10^11 m.

The weights of bags filled by a machine are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.05 kilograms and a mean that can be set by the operator. at what level should the mean weight be set if it required that only 1% of the bags weigh less than 9.5 kilograms? round the answer to 2 decimal places.

We will use a video to study faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction by analyzing the induction that occurs due a coil of copper wire sliding along an air track that passes through an external magnetic field. specifically, we will: examine some of the main principles behind faraday’s law. apply lenz’s law to determine the direction of the induced emf. take measurements of the induced emf from the voltmeter as the coil passes into and out of the external magnetic field. use the horizontal scale provided to determine the speed of the coil. calculate the magnetic field induced in the coil as it passes into and out of the external magnetic field.
