Question

You're driving along Route 22, minding your own business, when you suddenly see a police car. Not really having paid attention to your speed up to this point, you step on the brakes. Unfortunately, it is too late. The officer pulls you over, and he is clearly not pleased with the speed you were traveling. In fact, he fully intends to make your life miserable. He gives you a sheet with a list of fines and tells you that he pulled you over for doing 0.0303 kilometers per second in a 6.344 x 1014 micrometer per year zone According to the chart below, what fine will you be paying? PEEDING FINES iles per hour ver the limit 6-10 11-15 16-20 21-25 26-30 fine $150 $200 $250 $300 $500 $750 31 or more 1000

Explanation / Answer

(a) Conversion of Micrometer into Mile

=6.344*10^14

=634400000000000.

=634400000000000/365

=1738082191780.82

=1738082191780.82 / 24

=72420091324 micro metre

One Mile=1609000000 Micrometre

So 72420091324 micro metre = 45 Miles

=3600*0.0303

=109.08 Kilometers

One Kilometer = 0.621371 Miles

So 109.08 Km = 67.77 Miles

Hence (67.77miles-45 miles) = 22.77 Miles.

So he falls between the range of 21-25 Miles per hour - The fine levied will be $500.
