It takes 8 minutes for light to travel from the sun to the Earth. Therefore, if the sun were to disappear right now, we wouldn't know about it for 8 minutes because that is how long it would take for the absence of sunlight to reach us. The other options are not correct as there is no evidence to suggest that the sun would disappear in 8 minutes, and there is no receiving equipment involved in this scenario.
