A pallet of bricks is to be suspended by attaching a rope to it and connecting the other end to a couple of heavy crates on the
roof of a building, as shown. The rope pulls horizontally on the lower crate, and the coefficient of static friction between the lower crate and the roof is 0.666. What is the weight of the heaviest pallet of bricks that can be supported this way?

B. 350 lb
C. 250 lb
D. 266 lb

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:
Explanation:
The equation for this is
where f is the frequency, v is the velocity, and lambda is the wavelength. Filling in:
and
which means that
the wavelength is 1.37 m, rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
