For the uninformed, one british foot in length (or 304.8mm to be precise) is about 1ns in time. Proof: c = 2.99792458 x 10 8 m/s (http://www.what-is-the-speed-of-light.com/) 1ft = 304.8mm := 3.048 x 10^-1m Therefore: 1ft = 3.048 x 10^-3 m / 2.99792458 x 10^8 m/s == 1.01670336216396744710 x 10^-9 s So this jackass is selling remarked wooden school rulers for the super deal price of $1.50 + s&h. Novelty toys for the physicsts. |
