Exton and Shah measured that distance as 0.12 meters, or 0.12 meters per cycle. Multiplying something measured in âmeters per cycleâ by something in âcycles per secondâ will give a measurement in âmeters per second.â That's the wave's velocityâthe speed of light.
The US declared war on Japan (unanimously in the Senate, and 388 to 1 in the House of Representatives) on 8 December 1941 thus entering WWII. The declaration was in response tâ¦o the bombing of Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941.
Had Germany NOT declared war on the US on December 11,1941, itâs likely that the US would not have even entered the European theater of conflict until at least 1943. There was nothing to be gained for the United States to enter the war in 1939.
