The consumption of natural gas by a company satisfies the empirical equation V = 1.50t + 0.008 00t2, where V is the volume of gas in millions of cubic feet and t is the time in months. Express this equation in units of cubic feet and seconds. Assume a month is 30.0 days.

- A commonly used turn of mass in the English system Is the pound-mass, abbreviated Ibm, where 1 Ibm = 0.454 kg. What is the density of water in pound-mass per cubic foot?arrow_forwardFor a given speed limit, would the numerical value be greater in mi/h or in km/h?arrow_forwardCarry out the arithmetic operations (a) the sum of the measured values 756, 37.2, 0.83, and 2; (b) the product 0.003 2 356.3; and (c) the product 5.620 .arrow_forward
- Fill in the blanks with the correct numbers for the metric prefixes. (a) 40,000,000 bytes = ___ Mb (b) 0.5722 L = ___ mL (c) 540.0 m = ___ cm (d) 5,500 bucks = ___ kilobucksarrow_forwardOne student uses a meterstick to measure the thickness of a textbook and obtains 4.3 cm 0.1 cm. Other students measure the thickness with vernier calipers and obtain four different measurements: (a) 4.32 cm 0.01 cm. (b) 4.31 cm 0.01 cm, (c) 4.24 cm 0.01 cm, and (d) 4.43 cm 0.01 cm. Which of these four measurements, if any, agree with that obtained by the first student?arrow_forwardIf we changed our speed limit signs to metric, what would probably replace (a) 55 mi/h and (b) 65 mi/h?arrow_forward
