<span>The fluid in a graduated cylinder should be read at the BOTTOM of the meniscus.</span>
Is the velocity constant? Is there any friction?
3 meters per second
then after 40 seconds it must 3*40 = 120 meters
120 meters or 0.12 km if you will
(186,000 mi/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (365 da/yr)
= (186,000 x 3,600 x 24 x 365) mi/yr
= 5,865,696,000,000 miles per year (rounded to the nearest million miles)
Im not so sure but it should be the
instantaneous speed
