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:
a ) The earth rotates by 2π radian in 24 x 60 x 60 s
so angular speed ( w ) = 2π / (24 x 60 x 60) = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ rad / s
b ) Linear speed of city of Arlington ( v ) = w r = w R Cosλ where R is radius of the earth and λ is latitude .
v = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ x 6.371 x 10⁶ cos 32.7357
389.5 m /s
acceleration = w² r = w² R Cos 32.7357
= (7.268 x 10⁻⁵ )² x 6.371 x 10⁶ x cos 32.7357
=283.08 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²
c) velocity ratio =
w r /w R =
R cos 32.73/ R
= Cos 32.73
= 0.84 .
Answer:
471 N
Explanation:
Weight is just another word for the force of gravity.
Weight is a force that acts at all times on all objects near Earth. The Earth pulls on all objects with a force of gravity downward toward the center of the Earth (g-9.81 m/s2)
so we can simply say
weight =mass * gravitaitonal acceleraition
= 48 * 9.81
=470.88 N
= 471 N
Answer:
Magnetism is a physical phenomenon that manifests itself in a force acting between magnets or other magnetized or magnetisable objects, and a force acting on moving electric charges, such as in current-carrying cables. The force action takes place by means of a magnetic field, which is generated by the objects themselves or otherwise. There are natural and artificial magnets. All magnets have two poles called the north pole and the south pole. The north pole of one magnet repels the north pole of another magnet and attracts the south pole of another magnet; the same with south poles.
