The speed of light is 3.00 x 108 m/s. What is this speed in feet per minute? (1 m = 3.28 ft)
Added by Javier P.
Step 1
Given: 1 m = 3.28 ft Speed of light in meters per second = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s Speed of light in feet per second = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s * 3.28 ft/m Speed of light in feet per second = 9.84 x 10^8 ft/s Show more…
