A child does 403j of work while pulling a box from the ground up to his tree house at a steady speed with a light rope. The tree house is 4.8 above the ground the mass of the box? Use g = 9.8 m/s ^ 2 Calculate to one decimal
Definition Definition Rate at which light travels, measured in a vacuum. The speed of light is a universal physical constant used in many areas of physics, most commonly denoted by the letter c . The value of the speed of light c = 299,792,458 m/s, but for most of the calculations, the value of the speed of light is approximated as c = 3 x 10 8 m/s.
