Answer:
6.71 × 10^8 mi/hr
Explanation:
Light is usually defined as an electromagnetic wave that is comprised of a definite wavelength. It is of both types, visible and invisible. The light emitted from a source usually travels at a speed of about 3 × 10^8 meter/sec. This speed of light is commonly represented by the letter 'C'.
To write it in the metric system, it has to be converted into miles/hour.
We know that,
1 minute = 60 seconds
60 minutes = 1 hour
1 kilometer = 1000 meter
1 miles = 1.6 kilometer
Now,
=
= 1.08 × 10^12 m/ hr (meter/hour)
=
= 6.71 × 10^8 mi/hr (miles/hour)
Thus, the value for speed of light (C) in metric unit is 6.71 × 10^8 mi/hr.
Answer:
250 N
433 N
Explanation:
N = Normal force by the surface of the inclined plane
W = Weight of the block = 500 N
f = static frictional force acting on the block
Parallel to incline, force equation is given as
f = W Sin30
f = (500) Sin30
f = 250 N
Perpendicular to incline force equation is given
N = W Cos30
N = (500) Cos30
N = 433 N
