During the summer of 2015, the New Horizon space probe provided the first fly by images of the dwarf planet Pluto. The NASA engineers were amazed to see mountains as high as 3,500 meters displayed across the icy surface. They also observed a canyon that is 7 to 9 kilometers deep. One of the most amazing things about the entire massion was the ability of a space probe, about the size of a piano to travel the enormous distance to the Kuiper Belt object. Which of the following distances best reflects the distance the New Horizon traveled from Earth to Pluto?

A= 32.63 astronomical units

B= 4.67 Light years

C= 7 million kilometers

D= 600,000 miles

Amajor impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use their electric vehicles for occasional extended trips. in an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle. which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success? (a) many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips. (b) because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles a week, the cost to the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles. (c) the relatively long time it takes to recharge the battery of an electric vehicle can easily be fitted into the regular patterns of car use characteristic of commuters. (d) although electric vehicles are essentially emission-free in actual use, generating the electricity necessary for charging an electric vehicle's battery can burden the environment. (e) some family vehicles are used primarily not for commuting but for making short local trips, such as to do errands.
