Answer the following problems showing all work. Showing all work means using the steps stated in Dimensional Analysis Notes and math rules.
Conversion factors 1 in = 2.54 cm
1. Remy that curious cat can run 31.2km/hr. How fast can he go in ft/sec?
2. If Remy wanted to run 4.5E3m, how long (in days) will it take him? Assume he run at same speed as above problem.
3. Duxbury football team can eat 1.5 hamburgers/(player-hr). How many burgers will the team eat if there are 11 players and they eat for 2.5 hrs?
4. The density of the hamburger that the Duxbury football eat was D = 1.24g/cm3. Assume it each hamburger was 210.g, what is the volume of the hamburger. (We are assuming the hamburger is one substance.)
Answer: 1) 28.4ft/sec , 2) 6.0E-3 days , 3) 41 hamburgers
4) 169cm3 for 1 hamburger, if assumed 41 hamburgers (from Q3) then 6.94E3 cm3 or 6.94 L
