The speed of the light beam is 299,792,453 meters (186,282 miles) per second, minus a smidgeon
for the air it has to struggle through.
That's relative to the guy holding the searchlight, the freight car, the ground, the railroad ties,
the signal poles, the grade-crossing signs, the buildings in the city, the river running through it,
all the other lights in the city, the airplanes overhead, bullets shot from guns and still in flight,
rocket ships, electrons flying through TV picture tubes, spinning billboards along the track, bicycles
on the road, the moon, stars, comets, planets, and everything else in the vicinity of the guy on top
of the freight car.
What else can I help you with?
If an object traveling in one direction has a positive velocity what kind of velocity would the same object traveling in the opposite direction have?
Regardless of the direction being travelled, any object on the move has a positive velocity, even if it is moving backwards, because velocity is the measure of the rate of movement in a given direction. Compare: A car is traveling forwards on a highway at 100 km/h. How fast is it travelling? If it turns round (or even it doesn't turn round, but just reverses) and travels at 100 km/h, how fast is it travelling? The answer is 100 km/h in both cases. (But reversing on a highway and travelling at 100 km/h is not recommended!)
How do you compare the direction of your partners and your force?
To compare the direction of your partner's force with your own, you can use vector addition. If the forces are in the same direction, you add their magnitudes to get the combined force. If they are in opposite directions, you subtract the magnitudes. If the forces are at an angle to each other, you can use trigonometry to determine the resultant force direction.
What is a position describing an objects location compare to?
A position describes an object's location relative to a reference point or coordinate system. It specifies where the object is situated in space, providing information on its distance and direction from the reference point.
How does the direction of momentum compare to the direction of velocity?
Momentum is a vector quantity that is proportional to velocity. The direction of momentum is the same as the direction of velocity, but momentum includes the mass of the object in addition to its velocity.
How can one determine the relative density of a substance?
To determine the relative density of a substance, you can divide the density of the substance by the density of water. The relative density is also known as specific gravity and helps compare the density of a substance to that of water.
How do relative ethics compare to universal ethics?
How do relative ethics compare to universal ethical standards? Should ethics ever be relative? Provide a rationale for your response.
What type of graph or chart is to compare relative parts of a whole?
A pier chart is used to compare relative parts of a whole.
What part of a graph or chart is used to compare relative parts of a whole?
A pier chart is used to compare relative parts of a whole.

How does the direction of the force of friction compare with direction of the motion of a vehicle?
It is in most cases opposite to the direction of motion.

What relative proportions do the earth and moon have compare to each other?

Compare velocity from acceleration?
Velocity is a constant traveling speed. Acceleration is increasing traveling speed (variation of speed over time)
How do you compare and contrast the Mormons and the 49ers?
Mormons were traveling west in search of religious freedom. 49ers were traveling west in search of wealth.
