Closing the Lesson:
|
How fast is light: use the equation speed = distance/time? Allow the students to calculate the time it takes for light to travel to the sun to earth. Earth is 150 billion meters from earth; and the speed of light is 300 million meters per second. The site to covert metric system to customary system: On-line Conversion Calculator |
