Conversations with astronauts on the lunar surface were characterized by a kind of echo in which the earthbound person's voice was so loud in the astronaut's space helmet that it was picked up by the astronaut's microphone and transmitted back to Earth. It is reasonable to assume that the echo time equals the time necessary for the radio wave to travel from the Earth to the Moon and back (that is, neglecting any time delays in the electronic equipment). Calculate the distance from Earth to the Moon given that the echo time was 2.56 s and that radio waves travel at the speed of light (3.00108 m/s).
Conversations with astronauts on lunar walks had an echo that was used to estimate the distance to the Moon. The sound spoken by the person on Earth was transformed into a radio signal sent to the Moon, and transformed hack into sound on a speaker inside the astronaut’s space suit. This sound was picked up by the microphone in the space suit (intended tor the astronaut’s voice] and sent back to Earth as a radio echo of sorts. If the round-trip time was 2.60 s, what was the approximate distance to the Moon, neglecting any delays in the electronics?
What is the order of magnitude of the time interval required for light to travel 10 km as in Galileos attempt to measure the speed of light? (a) several seconds (b) several milliseconds (c) several microseconds (d) several nanoseconds

The speed of light is c = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. If the distance between the Earth and the moon is d = 2.39 x 10^5 mi (1.0 mi = 1.61 km). You send a laser from the Earth to the moon and back. How long does this take?
A person on earth communicating via radio transmission with an astronaut on the moon asks a question. At the time of transmission the moon is 4.00 x 10^5 km from the earth, and the speed of radio waves is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. How long must the person on earth wait for a response if the astronaut answers 2.50 seconds after the message is received?
