A father and his daughter are interested in the same baseball game. The father sits next to his radio at home arid listens to the game, his daughter attends the game and bib in the outfield bleachers. In the bottom of the ninth inning a home run is hit. If the father’s radio is 132 km from the radio station, and the daughter is 115 m from home plate, who hears the home run first? (Assume that there is no time delay between the baseball being hit and its sound being broadcast by the radio station. In addition, let the speed of sound in the stadium be 343 m/s.)

Consider a radio communication signal aimed at Mars from Earth. The distance between Earth and Mars is 54.6 x 109 m. How long does it take the radio wave to reach Mars?
A) Suppose a star is 4.15 ✕ 1018 m from Earth. Imagine a pulse of radio waves is emitted toward Earth from the surface of this star. How long (in years) would it take to reach Earth?
B) The Sun is 1.50 ✕ 1011 m from Earth. How long (in minutes) does it take sunlight to reach Earth?
C) The Moon is 3.84 ✕ 108 m from Earth. How long (in s) does it take for a radio transmission to travel from Earth to the Moon and back?
