5.An atom has a diameter of 3.5x10^-10m.What is the measurement in a.)cm and b.) nm 6.What is the equivalent speed of light which is 299792458.0 m/s to: a)km/h b)nm/us c)cm/ns d)um/s

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.
