An astronomical unit (au) is equal to the average distance from earth to the sun, about 92. 9 × 10^6 mi. A parsec (pc) is the distance at which a length of 1 au would subtend an angle of exactly 1 second of arc (the figure). A light-year (ly) is the distance that light, traveling through a vacuum with a speed of 186000 mi/s, would cover in 1. 0 year. Express the earth–sun distance in (a) parsecs and (b) light-years.

Engines for propeller-driven aircraft are limited in their maximum rotational speed by the fact that the tip speed of the propeller must not approach the speed of sound in air (mach i). taking 6 ft as a typical diameter for a propeller of a light airplane and 1100 fils as the speed of sound, find the upper limit on the rpm (revolutions per minute) of the propeller shaft.
