I'm having some trouble with a few problems that I'd really appreciate some help with.
1.) The velocity of a space shuttle is 8 x 10^3 meters/seconds
I have to convert this to kilometers/hours. I know there are 1000 meters in a kilometer, and 3600 seconds in an hour.
Next I have to convert meters/seconds to miles per hour!
However, I don't know how to put these into an equation to solve. :( The same goes for the following problem:
2.) 3 x 10^-1 joules/minutes
How many watts is this?
I know 1 watt = 1 joule/seconds, but again don't know how to put it into an equation.
The next part is how many miliwatts is produced?
I am just looking for how to put these into a solvable equation--I can take it from there. :)
Help would be greatly appreciated!
