A maser is a laser-type device thatproduces electromagnetic waves with frequencies in the microwaveand radio-wave bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. You can use theradio waves generated by a hydrogen maser as a standard of frequency.The frequency of these waves is 1,420,405,751.786 hertz. (A hertz is anothername for one cycle per second.) A clock controlled by a hydrogenmaser is off by only 1 s in 100,000 years. For the following questions,use only three significant figures. (The large number of significant figuresgiven for the frequency simply illustrates the remarkable accuracyto which it has been measured.) By how many seconds would a hydrogen maser clock be off after a time interval equal to the age of the earth?

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 back into sound on a speaker inside the astronaut’s space suit. This sound was picked up by the microphone in the space suit (intended for 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?
