*Homework question*
The speed of light (c) is about 300,000 kps.
So (382,000,000 / (c*1000)) * 2 = <Answer>
The speed of a satellite signal is approximately the speed of light, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second. This means that signals transmitted from a satellite to Earth or vice versa travel at this high speed.
radio signal bents around the curvature of earth and hence travel longer distance than the line of sight signal. At ultra high frequencies signal follows the line of sight path and hence maximum communication distance is limited due to curvature of earth for given height of transmitting and receiving antenna
It would take approximately 2.5 million years for a radio signal to travel from Earth to the Andromeda galaxy, which is about 2.5 million light-years away.
Distance = 3.03 x 109 kmSpeed of radio = 3 x 108 m/s = 3 x 105 km/sTime = (distance)/(speed) = (3.03 x 109)/(3 x 105) = 1.01 x 104 seconds = 2hrs48.3min (rounded)
if you are asking about the live television footage, the signal was sent via radio waves from an antenna on the LM and received by the Parkes radio telescope in Australia. If you are asking about the still pictures, they were brough home by the astronauts and developed on site at NASA.
The signal is changed to dc in the AGC circuit to change the gain. A weak signal will increase gain.
The Ionosphere hels AM radio broadcasters by reflecting the signal back to Earth.
Because you 'earth' it and the signal travels through you.
The speed of a satellite signal is approximately the speed of light, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second. This means that signals transmitted from a satellite to Earth or vice versa travel at this high speed.
Shorter wavelength, higher frequency.
Your radio signal works by using its signal to go to a tower and back to your radio (Via antenna).
Radio waves can travel 300,000km per second. If someone was dialing from the moon to the earth, a signal would arrive in about 1.3seconds. The distance from the moon to the earth is 390,000km.
It takes about 1 hour and 24 minutes for a radio signal to travel from Earth to Saturn when the two planets are at their closest point. This distance can vary depending on the positions of the two planets in their orbits.

You can get a radio signal from space on your computer using SETI.
0.301 seconds
It would take approximately 3 seconds for a radio signal to travel from Earth to a spacecraft that is 900 million meters away. This is because radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 300 million meters per second.
