Alinara [238K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Generally, density is measured using he SI unit for measurement of density which is kg/m³ or the cgs units used to describe the density of a substance which is g/cm³

However, due to its nature (being composed of varying amount proportions of different compounds mixed together resulting in a variation of the density of naturally produced crude oil) of having different densities whereby the lighter oils are more easily processed than the heavier variety of oils, oil density is related to the quality of the oil and it is usually measures in API gravity as follows;

°API = (141.5/S.G.) - 131.5

Where;

API = American Petroleum Institute

S. G. = Specific gravity

As such the API gravity of fresh water with a S. G. of 1.0 has is 10 degrees

Answer:

Please see the pictures attached below

The first picture has the values and the second has the formulas to construct the spreadsheet.

Explanation:

To construct the spreadsheet you should do the following:

1. First name the four columns as:

Number of folds

Thickness in inches

Thickness in feet

Thickness in miles

2. In the first column "Number of folds" put the numbers from 0 to 50 in order to calculate the thickness of each fold.

3. In the second column "Thickness in inches" put the following formula to show that each fold of a sheet is equal to multiply by 2 the original fold:

Thickness in inches = (thickness in inches(number of folds-1))*2

When the number of folds is 1, the formula will be:

Thickness in inches = 0.000 * 2 = 0.000

When the number of folds is 2, the formula will be:

Thickness in inches = 0.004 * 2 = 0.008

When the number of folds is 3, the formula will be:

Thickness in inches = 0.008 * 2 = 0.016

When the number of folds is 4, the formula will be:

Thickness in inches = 0.016 * 2 = 0.032

And so on until 50.

3. In the third column you only multiply by 0.08333 the value of inches to convert it to feet.

4. And in the fourth column you should multiply the value of inches by 0.0000157828 to convert it to miles.

An atomic radius is about 1.00*10^2 pm. Convert the radius to inches. (1 pm=10^-12m)
natka813 [3]

Answer:

3.937 x 10⁻⁸ inches

Explanation:

Data Given:

Atomic radium in pm (picometer) = 1.00 x 10² pm

Atomic radium in inches = ?

1 pm = 10⁻¹² m

Solution:

First convert picometer to meter

As we Know

  1 pm = 10⁻¹² m

then

  1.00 x 10² pm = X meter

Do cross multiplication

        X meter = (1.00 x 10² pm)(10⁻¹² m) / 1 pm

       X meter = 1 x 10⁻⁹ m

So, 1.00 x 10² pm equal to 1 x 10⁻⁹ m

Now convert meter to inches

As

         1 m = 39.37 inches

         1 x 10⁻⁹ m = X inches

Do cross multiplication

        X inches = (39.3701 inches)(1 x 10⁻⁹ m ) / 1 m

        X inches = 3.937 x 10⁻⁸ inches

So,

1.00 x 10² pm = 3.937 x 10⁻⁸ inches

so the radius is 3.937 x 10⁻⁸ inches
