You can easily convert common units and measures electronically, but you still should be able to use a conversion table, such as those in Appendix D. Table 1-6 is part of a conversion table for a system of volume measures once common in Spain; a volume of 1 fanega is equivalent to 55.501 dm3 (cubic decimeters). To complete the table, what numbers (to three significant figures) should be entered in (a) the cahiz column, (b) the fanega column, (c) the cuartilla column, and (d) the almude column, starting with the top blank? Express 7.00 almudes in (e) medios, (f) cahizes, and (g) cubic centimeters (cm3)

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The conversion factors given in the problem are listed below:

The conversion factor from fanega to cahiz is12fanega=1cahiz

The conversion factor from fanega to cahiz is 1cahiz=48curtilla.

The conversion factor from cahiz to cutilla is 1cahiz=144almude

The conversion factor from cahiz to almude is 1cahiz=288medio

The conversion factor from cahiz to medio is 1fanega=4curtilla

The conversion factor from fanega to curtilla is 1fanega=12almude

The conversion factor from fanega to almude is, 1fanega=24medio

The conversion factor from fanega to medio is, 1curtilla=3almude

The conversion factor from curtilla to almude is, 1curtilla=6medio

The conversion factor from curtilla to medio is, 1almude=2medio

The conversion factor from almude to medio is, 1almude=2medio.

02

Understanding the conversion factors

Unit conversion is the conversion between different units of measure for the same quantity, usually through multiplier conversion factors. Use the given conversion factors to convert the quantities from one unit to other.

03

(a) Conversion of the given units to Cahiz

Cahiz column:

1)Thegivenconversionfactoris12fanega=1cahiz.1fanega=112cahiz=8.3310-2cahizTherefore,1fanegaisis8.3310-2cahiz2)Thegivenconversionfactoris1cahiz=48curtilla1curtilla=148cahiz=2.0810-2cahizTherefore,1curtillais2.0810-2cahiz3)Thegivenconversionfactoris1cahiz=144almudeThus,1almude=1144cahiz=6.9410-3cahizTherefore,is4)Thegivenconversionfactoris1cahiz=288medio1medio=1288cahiz=3.4710-3cahizTherefore,1mediois3.4710-3cahiz.

04

(b) Conversion of the given units to Fanega

Fanega column:

1)Thegivenconversionfactoris1fanega=4curtilla1curtilla=14fanega=0.25fanegaTherefore,1curtillais0.25fanega2)Thegivenconversionfactoris,1fanegaSo,Therefore,1almudeis8.3310-2fanega3)Thegivenconversionfactoris,1fanega=24medio1medio=124fanega=4.1710-2fanegaSo,1mediois4.1710-2fanega

05

(c) Conversion of the given units to Curtilla

Curtilla column:

1)Thegivenconversionfactoris1cutilla=3almude1almude=13curtillaSo,1almudeis0.333curtilla.2)Thegivenconversionfactoris1curtilla=6medio1medio=16curtilla=0.167curtillaSo,1mediois0.167curtilla.

06

(d) Conversion of the given units to Almude

Almude column:

Thegivenconversionfactoris1almude=2medio.1medio=12almude=0.5almudeSo,1mediois0.5almude.

07

(e) Conversion of the given units to medio

Thegivenconversionfactoris1almude=2medio.7almude=72medio=14medioTherefore,7almudeis14medio.

08

(f) Conversion of the given units to cahiz

1almude=1144cahiz=6.9410-3cahizSo,7almude=76.9410-3cahiz=4.8610-2cahizTherefore,7almudeis4.8610-2cahiz

09

(g) Conversion of the given units to centimeters

1almude=112fanega=8.3310-2fanega1fanega=55.501dm3=55501cm37almude=78.3310-255501cm3=3.2410-4cm3Therefore,7almudeis3.2410-4cm3.

A ton is a measure of volume frequently used in shipping, but that use requires some care because there are at least three types of tons: A displacement ton is equal to 7 barrels bulk, a freight ton is equal to 8 barrels bulk, and a register ton is equal to 20 barrels bulk. A barrel bulk is another measure of volume: 1barrelbulk=0.1415m3. Suppose you spot a shipping order for 鈥73 tons鈥 ofM&Mcandies, and you are certain that the client who sent the order intended 鈥渢on鈥 to refer to volume (instead of weight or mass, as discussed in Chapter 5). If the client actually meant displacement tons, how many extra U.S. bushels of the candies will you erroneously ship if you interpret the order as (a) 73 freight tons and (b) 73 register tons? (1m3=28.378U.S. bushels.)

Question: The system in Fig. 12-28 is in equilibrium, with the string in the center exactly horizontal. Block A weighs 40 N , block Bweighs 50 N , and angle is 350 . Find (a) tension T1 , (b) tension T2 , (c) tension T3 , and (d) angle .

A constant horizontal force moves a 50kgtrunk 6.0 m up a 30incline at constant speed. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. What are (a) the work done by the applied force and (b) the increase in the thermal energy of the trunk and incline?

Iron has a density of7.87g/cm3, and the mass of an iron atom isrole="math" localid="1654573436593" 9.271026kg. If the atoms are spherical and tightly packed, (a) what is the volume of an iron atom, and (b) what is the distance between the centers of adjacent atoms?

Four identical particles of mass 0.50kg each are placed at the vertices of a2.0m2.0m square and held there by four massless rods, which form the sides of the square. What is the rotational inertia of this rigid body about an axis that (a) passes through the midpoints of opposite sides and lies in the plane of the square, (b) passes through the midpoint of one of the sides and is perpendicular to the plane of the square, and (c) lies in the plane of the square and passes through two diagonally opposite particles?
