What happens to light in a vacuum?
It depends on what are you asking for. If the question is related to the speed, then nothing occurs. If it is related to absortion, then you do not have absortion and you can "see" it from far, far away. "Light" is an electromagnetic wave. As all of them, its speed is independent of the medium in which travel. They do not need a physical medium to travel (in contrast to pressure waves, like the sound). The speed of light (defined as c = 3·108 m/s) is the same everywhere in the Universe. Of course, any material medium cause absortion. Due to this it is impossible to see object which are far away, because the atmosphere absorbe the energy of the light. In the outer space, opposite to this, you have almost a "vacuum", so you can see star's light which comes from light-year distance. As the medium is the vacuum, the light doesn't have absortion and it travel a lot. You have of course some regions with dust, so you do not see all the stars in the Universe.
What is a material that light can't travel through?
light cant travel through opague materials, or anything you cant see through.
How far can a laser beam travel?
It depends on what colour it is, the type of laser it is, the output level, the quality of the optics and the media it's travelling through. In a perfect vacuum, they'll travel much longer than through atmosphere. For example, green lasers travel further than red or blue. Class 1 and 2 lasers have an output power level of <5mW. Class 3 can go up to 100mW. See related link.
Light can travel through a vacuum as is evidenced when you see the sun or the moon. Can sound travel through a vacuum also?
No, sounds cannot travel through a vacuum. This is because sound requires a medium to travel through because it requires the vibration of particles to travel and there need to be particles to vibrate for it to travel through.
What kinda people can see objects that are close more clearly than objects that are far away?
Nearsighted people can see objects that are close more clearly than objects that are far away.
How was Mitch and Morrie's relationship mutualistic?
Tuesday's With Morrie is a wonderful book. Mitch and Morrie's relationship was mutualistic in that they both got something out of it. Mitch was able to let go of his perfectionism, and regain a sense of self that he thought had been lost long ago. Throughout his meeting's with Morrie, Mitch was reminded that although the culture of the U.S. is materialistic, true value lies in things which aren't material--the love of family, joy in life, truly listening to friends. Morrie was able to see one of his star student's flourish, and continue to teach until his death. Real teachers, after all, love to teach. Also, Morrie was able to spread his life philosophy through Mitch. All in all, they relied on each other in similar, yet somehow vastly different, ways.
What is the meaning of the phrase don't cling to things because everything is impermanent?
Saying this phrase, Morrie's trying to convey this message to Mitch. Morrie's dying, everybody's dying, because nothing's permanent. We live in the particular era of technology developing. All of us sometimes get used to something or someone. We all have wants and needs, and we all cling to things , because so it is in our genes. We don't think about it as something wrong, we just do that gratuitously.Lawless Heart. Morrie tries to caution Mitch from doing wrong things by giving him life lessons. Nothing is permanent: whatever or whoever it is, it will break or die. If you cling to things to much, partingwith them will beunbearable. Of course, he will always remain in our memory as something important for us. However, the stronger you become attached to something, the harder it will be to let him go. And yet there are times when you can not do anything to help and just watch from the sidelines. We can see it in the story of Mitch and Morrie.

Can you see a paradox in time?
A "time paradox" is usually associated with time travel. So far, there is no evidence that time travel is possible, so you can't see such paradoxes either.
Determine a safe speed to travel based on?
road conditions, traffic density, and how far you can see ahead
