Use these exact conversions to help solve the problem: 6 ft = 1 fathom 100 fathoms = 1 cable length 10 cable lengths = 1 nautical mile 3 nautical miles = 1 leaguearrow_forward1.89 Imagine that you place a cork measuring 1.30cm4.50cm3.00cm in a pan of water. On top of this cork, you place a small cube of lead measuring 1.15 cm on a side. Describe how you would determine if the combination of the cork and lead cube will still float in the water. Note any information you would need to look up to answer the question.arrow_forward1.69 The “Western Stone” in Jerusalem is one of the largest stone building blocks ever to have been used. It has a mass of 517 metric tons and measures 13.6 m long, 3.00 m high and 3.30 m wide. What is the density of this rock in g/cm3? (1 metric ton 1000 kg)arrow_forward
- A sample of vermilion-colored mineral was weighed in air, then weighed again while suspended in water. An object is buoyed up by the mass of the fluid displaced by the object. In air, the mineral weighed 18.49 g; in water, it weighed 16.21 g. The densities of air and water are 1.205 g/L and 0.9982 g/cm3, respectively. What is the density of the mineral?arrow_forwardThe first measurement of sea depth was made in 1840 in the central South Atlantic, where a plummet was lowered 2425 fathoms. What is this depth in meters? Note that 1 fathom = 6ft, 1 ft = 12 in., and 1 in. = 2.54 102 m. (These relations are exact.)arrow_forwardCarbon monoxide (CO) detectors sound an alarm when peak levels of carbon monoxide reach 100 parts per million (ppm). This level roughly corresponds to a composition of air that contains 400,000 g carbon monoxide per cubic meter of air (400,000 g/m3). Assuming the dimensions of a room are 18 ft 12 ft 8 ft, estimate the mass of carbon monoxide in the room that would register 100 ppm on a carbon monoxide detector.arrow_forward
- 1.86 Unfermented grape juice used to make wine is called a ‘must.” The sugar content of the must determines whether the wine will be dry or sweet. The sugar content is found by measuring the density of the must. If the density is lower than 1.070 g/mL, then sugar syrup is added until the density reaches 1.075 g/mL. Suppose that you have a sample taken from a must whose mass is 47.28 g and whose volume is 44.60 mL. Describe how you would determine whether or not sugar syrup needs to be added and if so, how would you estimate how much sugar syrup to add?”arrow_forwardThe total length of all the DNA molecules contained in a human body is 1 1010 miles. The population of the United States is about 300 million. What is the total length of all the DNA of the U.S. population in lightyears?

The density of silicon is 2.33 g/cm3.arrow_forwardAn experimenter places a piece of a solid metal weighing 255 g into a graduated cylinder, which she then fills with liquid mercury. After weighing the cylinder and its contents, she removes the solid metal and fills the cylinder with mercury. She now finds that the cylinder and its contents weigh 101 g less than before. The density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3. What is the density of the solid metal?arrow_forward
