Earthquakes generate three types of seismic waves<span>: P (primary) </span>waves<span>, S (secondary) </span>waves<span> and surface </span>waves<span>, which arrive at </span>seismic<span> recording stations one after another. Both P and S </span>waves<span>penetrate the interior of the Earth while surface </span>waves<span> do not. Due to this, P and S </span>waves<span> are known as "body </span>waves<span>".

Some gas molecules move at speeds of 542 meters per second. How fast is this in miles per hour? 542 =? 1h Solve by dimensional a

artcher [175]

Answer:

$1212.42\ \text{mph}$

Explanation:

We need to convert $542\ \text{m/s}$ to $\text{miles/hour}$

$1\ \text{mile}=5280\ \text{ft}$

$1\ \text{ft}=12\ \text{inches}$

$5280\ \text{ft}=5280\times 12=63360\ \text{inches}$

$1\ \text{inch}=2.54\ \text{cm}=0.0254\ \text{m}$

$63360\ \text{inches}=63360\times 0.0254=1609.344\ \text{m}$

So

$1\ \text{mile}=1609.344\ \text{m}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{m}=\dfrac{1}{1609.34}\ \text{miles}$

$1\ \text{hour}=60\times 60\ \text{seconds}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{s}=\dfrac{1}{3600}\ \text{hour}$

$542\ \text{m/s}=\dfrac{\dfrac{542}{1609.34}}{\dfrac{1}{3600}}=1212.42\ \text{mph}$

The speed of the gas molecules is $1212.42\ \text{mph}$ .
