JIFFY - Dimensional Analysis?
The American physical chemist Gilbert Newton Lewis proposed a unit of time called the "jiffy". According to Lewis, 1 jiffy = the time it takes light to travel one centimeter. (a) If you perform a task in a jiffy, how long has it taken in seconds? (b) How many jiffys are in one minute? (Use the fact that the speed of light is approximately 2.9979 x 10^8 m/s.)
All you need to solve this is to determine the length of a jiffy in seconds. Since velocity = length / time, then time = length / velocity.
1 jiffy = 0.01 m / 2.9979e8 m/s = 3.3357e-11 seconds
