Prof. Chini's research group uses short bursts of laser light to measure the motion of electrons moving within and among atoms. In the planetary model of the atom, the hydrogen atom can be viewed as having a single electron in a circular orbit with a diameter of approximately 10-10 m. If the average speed of the electron in the orbit is known to be 2,200,000 m/s, calculate the number of revolutions per second it makes around the nucleus.

A high tech company uses a satellite to measure the size of features on the surface of the earth. They use this technology to measure a particular rectangular field and find it's length to be 444 ± 1.8 in meters and it's width to be 198 ± 1.63 in meters. They plan to report the perimeter (sum of two lengths and two widths) of the field as P± SP in units of yards. (1 meter = 1.094 yards) What is SP?
