Both systems have benefits and disadvantages.

Benefits of the Metric System

<span>Easier for anything involving conversions.Celsius is based on the the freezing and boiling points of water.Is the most popular system of measurement worldwide. This gives interchangeability internationally.Other systems of measurement, like U.S. standard units, are tied directly to metric units so they can be converted back and forth.<span>You can sell to the government since governments (including the U.S. government) require government contractors to use the metric system for most things.</span></span>

They're able to understand the results of each others' work, and
repeat someone else's work if they want to, much faster, easier,
and more accurately than if they had to first convert it to different
units.

Estimate the radiation pressure due to a bulb that emits 25 W of EM radiation at a distance of 9.5 cm from the center of the bul
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Given Information:  

Power of bulb = w = 25 W atts

distance = d = 9.5 cm = 0.095 m

Required Information:  

Radiation Pressure = ?

Answer:

Radiation Pressure =7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

We know that radiation pressure is given by

P = I/c

Where I is the intensity of radiation and is given by

I = w/4πd²

Where w is the power of the bulb in watts and d is the distance from the center of the bulb.

So the radiation pressure becomes

P = w/c4πd²

Where c = 3x10⁸ m/s is the speed of light

P = 25/(3x10⁸*4*π*0.095²)

P = 7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the radiation pressure due to a 25 W bulb at a distance of 9.5 cm from the center of the bulb is 7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

You have a 2.2 m long copper wire. you want to make an n-turn current loop that generates a 1.9 mt magnetic field at the center
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
The trick here is that there are two variables, Diameter of the coil and number of turns in it. So, in order to solve it, we will need two equations in D and N
Since we are making coil, formula for magnetic field will be B = μₒni/D
D = μₒni/B = 4π x 10^(-7) x (N) x (2.2) / (1.6)x10^(-3) = 1.7 x 10^(-3) x N = D
Another equation will be from the wire's length.
Total length = Circumference of one loop x No. of turns = πD x N = 2.2
We will eliminate N because we need D.
N = 2.2 / πD
Substitute in 1st equation.
1.7 x 10^(-3) x 2.2 / π = D^2
<span> D = 0.034 m = 3.4 cm </span>
