<========= 45 mm =============> = 1 secondTo determine the period of light-intensity pulsation of the pulsar, i.e., the time interval between consecutive blips, we can say that one second is equivalent to 45 mm in horizontal distance. Thus, 1 sec = 45 mm, and the appropriate conversion factor is:
1 meter | = 10 decimeters |
= 100 or 102 centimeters (cm) | |
= 1000 or 103 millimeters (mm) | |
= 0.001 or 10-3 kilometers (km) | |
= 10,000,000,000 or 1010 Angstroms () |
