No. It would take significantly longer. A pressure wave would not move through the rod at the speed of light.

According to the internet, the speed of sound in steel is 4512m/s. I'm not sure if a pressure wave would move through the rod at the the same speed as sound, but assuming that they're on a similar order of magnitude, it would take something like 60,000 years for the guy on the other end of the rod to feel it.

Can black holes suck in people and rocket ships?

Black holes have such strong gravitational pull that they can theoretically pull in anything that gets too close, including people and rocket ships. However, the likelihood of a person or a rocket ship getting close enough to be pulled into a black hole is extremely low, as we are very far away from any known black holes.


What will happen if the two switches connected to light up a single bulb are on?

It is dependant on whether the switches are in wired in a parallel or series configuration. If the switches are wires in parallel then both switches would have to be off to turn the light bulb off. Either switch could turn the light bulb on. If the switches are wired in series then both switches would have to be on to turn the light bulb on. Either switch could turn the light bulb off.

Our check engine light was on in our 1998 Intrigue. We went to Autozone and they pulled the codes and saw that it was either one (or both because they said there was 2). If your light is not on I am not sure how to find out otherwise. Autozone said that it tripped our light.

If light can be pulled into a black hole that suggests mass What is the weight per square meter?

light has no mass and therefore no weight. Light cannot be "pulled" into a black hole. The escape velocity from a black hole is greater than the speed of light, so no light can escape from a black hole. Spacetime in the vicinity of a black hole is greatly distorted by the hole's gravity, and light may travel along curved geodesics that intersect the black hole. But it is not pulled in.
