EVALUATE: 1 in.3 is greater than 1 cm3 , so the volume in in.3 is a smaller number than the volume in cm3 , which is 473 cm3 . IDENTIFY: We know the speed of light in m/s. t = d / v . Convert 1.00 ft to m and t from s to ns. SET UP: The speed of light is v = 3.00 × 108 m/s . 1 ft = 0.3048 m . 1 s = 109 ns . 0.3048 m EXECUTE: t = = 1.02 × 10−9 s = 1.02 ns 3.00 × 108 m/s EVALUATE: In 1.00 s light travels 3.00 × 108 m = 3.00 × 105 km = 1.86 × 105 mi .

1. The problem asks us to assume vcom and ω are constant. For consistency of units, we write 5280 ft mi vcom = 85 mi h = 7480 ft min . 60 min h b g FGH IJ K Thus, with ∆x = 60 ft , the time of flight is t = ∆x vcom = (60 ft) /(7480 ft/min) = 0.00802 min . During that time, the angular displacement of a point on the ball’s surface is θ = ωt = 1800 rev min 0.00802 min ≈ 14 rev . b gb g 2.
