Einstein's theory of special relativity sets of the speed of light, 186,000 miles per second (300 million meters per second). ... The speed of light in a vacuum is 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), and in theory nothing can travel faster than light.

Answer: 3.0\times 10^8m

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the distance travelled per unit time.

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Units of speed are inter convertible:

Given : speed = 1.86\times 10^5miles/sec

That is in 1 second ,  light travels = 1.86\times 10^5miles

Converting miles to meters:

1 mile = 1609.34 m

1.86\times 10^5miles=\frac{1609.34}{1}\times 1.86\times 10^5=3.0\times 10^8m

Thus speed of light will be 3.0\times 10^8 meters.

A student neutralized 16.4 milliliters of HCl by adding 12.7 milliliters of 0.620 M KOH. What was the molarity of the HCl acid?
Katen [24]
V ( HCl ) = 16.4 mL / 1000 => 0.0164 L

M( HCl) = ?

V( KOH) = 12.7 mL / 1000 => 0.0127 L

M(KOH) = 0.620 M

Number of moles KOH:

n = M x V

n = 0.620 x 0.0127

n = 0.007874 moles of KOH

number of moles HCl :

<span>HCl + KOH = H2O + KCl
</span>
1 mole HCl ------ 1 mole KOH
<span>? mole HCl--------0.007874 moles KOH
</span>
moles HCl = 0.007874 * 1 / 1

= 0.007874 moles of HCl

M = n / V

M = 0.007874 / <span>0.0164

</span>= 0.480 M

The strength of an atom's attraction for the electrons in a chemical bond is the atom's?
Mazyrski [523]

<span><span>Yes. An element that is highly electronegative pulls more on the electrons in a bond, such as oxygen in H20. This creates a polar bond, where there is a small negative charge on the oxygen, and a small positive charge in between the hydrogens.

Starch and cellulose are both produced by plants, yet one is easily digested by animals and the other is not. Discuss the differ
Nadusha1986 [10]
<span>Starch and cellulose have the same substance but different structures. They are both polysaccharides. The basic unit of a polysaccharide is the glucose. Glucose, which contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, have two forms. The alpha-glucose with an alcohol group attached to carbon 1 is down and the beta-glucose with the alcohol group attached to carbon 1 is up. Starch is the alpha-glucose while cellulose is the beta-glucose. Starches are linked into a straight chain whereas the cellulose are connected like a pile of stack paper. When the human body eats starch, it can digest the starch but not the cellulose because it has no enzyme that can break it down. </span>
