Question

Calculate the time for signal transmission

Answer 1

hello friend ....!!!

• according to the question we should calculate the time taken by the signal to reach the moon.

• given clues :

$distance \: \: = 4 \times {10}^{8}$


and we know the speed of the radar signal is same as that of speed of light.

$speed \: \: = 3 \times {10}^{8}$


we know,

$speed \: \: = \frac{distance}{time \: taken}$

therefore,


$time\: \: \: = \frac{4 \times {10}^{8} }{3 \times {10}^{8} }$
therefore,


time = 1.34 seconds.
