If Light travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 kilometers per second What is the light's acceleration?
Trick question. A "constant speed" automatically means zero acceleration -- there is no change in speed.
What Signal is transmitted by frequencies in the 300- GHz to 300000-GHz range which is just above the top of the wireless spectrum as it is defined by the FCC?
Infrared
How fast can light waves travel in a second if it's moving through a vacuum?
Approximately 186000 miles/second or 300000 kilometers/second
How many tons is 1500 pounds equal to?
2000 pounds equal 1 ton, so 1500 lbs would be 3/4 ton

What is light's acceleration if its traveling at a constant speed of 300000 km s?
It has no acceleration. The definition of acceleration is the change in velocity over time, so if it is traveling at a constant speed, it has no acceleration. Also, the speed of light is a constant, which means it does not change.
If you plot the distance that light travels on the graph and it travels at a speed of 300000 kilometers per second what is the slope of the graph?
If you are plotting distance versus time it is a straight line with slope 300000
Light from a star travels from earth in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 kilometers per second What is the acceleration of the light?
The speed of light is a constant, so the acceleration is zero. However, light IS affected by gravity, and gravity causes an acceleration. How does this balance? The light moves at the same speed - the speed of light, abbreviated "c" - but loses or gains energy as the light moves toward or away from the gravity source. In gaining energy (without speeding up!) the frequency of the light is increased and the wavelength of the light (or any electromagnetic energy) is decreased, In losing energy, the wavelength is increased and the wavelength decreased. This could be a trick question, of course. Light from a star wouldn't be travelling from earth, unless we are talking about reflected light, which would not be particularly intense, but it is not out of the question.
Light travels about 300000 km in a single second through air?
No. In a vacuum.
Acceleration of a boat that has a net force of a 1000 newtons and a mass of 300000 grams?

Travels at 300000 kms in a vacuum?
uhmm.. i would say that it would be the belt in your vacuum. :)
What travels at 300000 kilometers per second in a vacuum?
The closest is the speed of light at 299,792,458 kilometers per second.
What is 95 percent of 300000?
95% of 300000= 95% * 300000= 0.95 * 300000= 285,000
What is 300000 80 percent of?
80% of 300000 = 240000 = 80% * 300000 = 80%/100% * 300000 = 240000
What is 1 64ths of 300000?
1/64 of 300000 = 300000/64 = 4687.5
