The conversion factor relating miles to meters is 1mile=1610m. the speed of light is 3.00×108 m/s. how fast is this in miles per hour (miles/h)?

The Speed of Light is 3 × 10⁸ Meters per Second

It means In one second Light travels a Distance of 3 × 10⁸ Meters

We know that One Hour is made up of 60 minutes and Each Minute has 60 seconds.

One Hour has 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds

In 3600 seconds Light Travels a Distance of 3 × 10⁸ × 3600 Meters

In One hour Light Travels a Distance of 3 × 10⁸ × 3600 Meters

We know that One Mile = 1610 Meter

3 × 10⁸ × 3600 Meters in Miles = (3 × 10⁸ × 3600)/1610 = 6.7 × 10⁸ Miles

The Speed of Light in Miles per Hour is 6.7 × 10⁸

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
