In general it takes 365 days, 5 hours, 59 minutes and 16 seconds for the earth to make an orbit around the sun. Convert this time to seconds. a) \( 2.16 \times 10^{7} \) seconds b) \( 2.16 \times 10^{4} \) seconds c) \( 3.16 \times 10^{7} \) seconds d) \( 2.59 \times 10^{7} \) seconds
How many seconds does it take the earth to make one rotation? Note that one rotation is 24 hours. a) \( 8.6 \times 10^{2} \) seconds b) \( 8.6 \times 10^{3} \) seconds c) \( 8.6 \times 10^{4} \) seconds d) \( 8.6 \times 10^{5} \) seconds
How many nanoseconds are in 1 mega second? a) \( 1 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{~ns} \) b) \( 1 \times 10^{12} \) ns c) \( 1 \times 10^{15} \mathrm{~ns} \) d) \( 1 \times 10^{-12} \) ns e) \( 1 \times 10^{-15} \mathrm{nS} \)
You must show your work on this question for full credit. One light year is the distance that light travels in exactly 1 year. If the speed of light is \( 6.7 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{mph} \) 1. convert light years to miles 2. convert light years to meters
