Check Your Understanding We know horn Figure 1.4 that the diameter of Earth is on the order of 107m , so the order of magnitude of its surface area is 1014m2 . What is that in square kilometers (that is, km2)? (Try doing this both by converting 107m to km and then squaring it and then by converting 1014m2 directly to square kilometers. You should get the same answer both ways.)
A car is 16 feet, 3 inches long. How long is it in meters? Use the fact that 1 inch=2.54 centim-eters to determine your answer. Explain your reasoning briefly.
The Earth is about 12,000 km in diameter. It is therefore how many orders of magnitude wider than you are tall? (i.e., the Earth’s diameter is how many times larger than your height (give an order-of-magnitude estimate)?) (I am 5'2")
1. The distance between Earth and Mars is exactly 92,943,000,000 meters. Express the given figure into Scientific Notation and in Unit Prefixes. 2. Why converting values in milligrams (mg) to centimeters (cm) is impossible? Explain in not exceeding 50 words.
1. A lecture period (50 min) is close to 1 microcentury. (a) How long is a microcentury in minutes? (b) Using percentage difference = ( actual − pproximation actual ) 100, find the percentage difference from the approximation. 2.Earth is approximately a sphere of radius 6.37 × 106 m. What are (a) its circumference in kilometers, (b) its surface area in square kilometers, and (c) its volume in cubic kilometers?
The mass of the Earth is about 6 x 1021 metric tons, and the mass of the Sun is about 2 x 1027 metric tons. About how many times more is the mass of the sun compared to the mass of the Earth? Put the numbers into Scientific Notation. Do your calculations using the product or quotient rule. Then write your answer as a Standard Number. What is the proper name of the answer?
The length of cell A is 9×10^6 m. The length of cell B is 0.0000003 m. What is the ratio of cell A's length to cell B's length? Use pencil and paper. Is it easier to find the ratio when the numbers are expressed in scientific notation or in standard form? Explain your reasoning.
Acre-feet (af) is a unit that some non-scientists unwisely use to measure volume of liquids. By definition 1 acre foot is one foot multiplied by 1 acre. 1 acre is equal to about 4 × 104 ft2 . 1. How many cubic feet are in an acre-foot?
Australian scientists were measuring the speed of a dingo. The dingo travelled 65.3 meters in 5 seconds. What is the speed in miles per hour? (Use 1 mile = 1.6093 km = 5280 ft.) please show units and full work , thanks
