Question

a) How far does light travel in 60.0 seconds? (c = 2.998 x 108 m/s)b) How many centiliters are in 9.98 x 10-9 dekaliters?

Answer 1

We will have the following:

a) First, we know that light travels at 299 792 458 m/s. So:

$299792458\cdot60=17987547480$

So, light will travel 17987547480 meters in 60 seconds.

b) We will have the following:

$9.98\cdot10^{-9}\cdot1000=9980$

So, there are 9980 centiliters in 9.98*10^-9 decaliters.
