Time taken for a message to sent from earth to reach the first astronauts is  140 second.

It takes about three days for a spacecraft to reach the Moon. in the course of that time a spacecraft travels at the least 240,000 miles 386,400 km that is the space between Earth and the Moon. The specific distance depends at the specific path selected.

The distance from earth to moon is approximately3.84*108m

So, the distance from earth to the astronauts is3.84*108m - 10500*103m =3.735*108m

The speed of light c = 2.99792458*108m/s

So, divided the distance from earth to astronauts by the speed off light,

3.735*108m/2.99792458*108m/s ˜1.25seconds

Divided the Pluto-earth distance by speed of light:

Hence, 4.2*1010m/2.99792458*108m/s = 140seconds

A negatively charged rod is placed near two neutral metal spheres, as shown below. Which statements describe the charging method
grin007 [14]
<h3>Answer;</h3>
  • <em>The spheres develop opposite charges. </em>
  • <em>Electrons move from Sphere A to Sphere B. </em>
  • <em>The spheres are charged through induction.</em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u><em>When a negatively charged rod is placed near two neutral metal spheres, the spheres will develop opposite charges, because the neutral metal spheres have both negative and positive charges. </em></u>From the basic law of electrostatics unlike charges attracts and like charges repel.
  • Thus, <em><u>the sphere will develop opposite charges, electrons will move from Sphere A to sphere B,</u></em> hence we say that the spheres will be charged by induction such that sphere A will acquire a positive charge while sphere B will acquire negative charge.

The heating system in Jeff and Tony's new home takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower. What
-BARSIC- [3]

If it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

<h3>What is heat transfer by convection?</h3>

Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another due to the movement of fluid.

During heat transfer by convection, cold air replaces hot risen air.

Thus, if it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.
