The Hoover Dam Bridge connecting Arizona and Nevada opened in October 2010 ( Fig. 1.18). It is the highest and longest arched concrete bridge in the Western Hemisphere, rising 890 ft above the Colorado River and extending 1900 ft in length. What are these dimensions in meters? Figure 1.18 High and Wide An aerial view of the new four-lane Hoover Dam Bridge between Arizona and Nevada with the Colorado River beneath (as seen from behind the dam). See Exercise 16.
(a) One of lire fundamental laws of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force on it and inversely proportional to its mass. If the proportionality constant is defined to have no dimensions, determine the dimensions of force. (b) The newton is the SI unit of force. According to the results for (a), how can you express a force having units of newtons by using the fundamental units of mass, length, and time?
Assume it takes 7.00 min to fill a 30.0-gal gasoline tank, (a) (Calculate the rate at which the tank is filled in gallons per second. (b) (Calculate the rate at which the tank is filled in cubic meters per second. (c) Determine the time interval, in hours, required to fill a 1.00-m3 volume at the same rate. (1 U.S. gal = 231 in.3)
Suppose the three fundamental standards of the metric system were length, density, and time rather than length, mass, and time. The standard of density in this system is to be defined as that of water. What considerations about water would you need to address to make sure that the standard of density is as accurate as possible?
