Question

8. Converting Units The volumes in your data are in millimeters, which are equivalent to cubic centimeters, cm3. But your areas are in units of square meters (m2). To combine these, you will have to convert to similar units. Convert one of your volume measurements from units of cm3 to units of m2, showing your work. (Remember that 1 ×106 cm3 = 1 m2.)

Answer 1

Answer:

This question is a practical question and hence incomplete

Explanation:

However, there are some steps that can be followed to achieve the aim of this question.

To convert millimeters (mm) to cubic centimeters (cm³), the value in millimeter will have to be divided by 1000. This is because 1 mm equals 0.001 cm³. Hence, if the volume in the data is 30 mm, the equivalent in cm³ will be

30/1000 = 0.03 cm³

OR

1 mm ⇒ 0.001 cm³

30 mm ⇒ ?

Let's assume the unknown (?) is X

1 × X = 30 × 0.001

X = 0.03 cm³

Hence, 30 mm equals 0.03 cm³

Also, to convert any volume from cubic centimeter (cm³) to square meter (m²), you will divide the unit in cm³ by 1 × 10⁶ (1,000,000). To convert the value obtained earlier (0.03 cm³ or 3 × 10⁻² cm³) to m², you will

1,000,000 cm³ ⇒ 1 m²

0.03 cm³ ⇒ ?

Let's assume the unknown (?) is Y

1000000 × Y = 0.03 × 1

Y = 0.03/1000000 OR you can write it as 3 × 10⁻² × 10⁻⁶

Y =  3 × 10⁻⁸m²

Hence, 0.03 mm equals 3 × 10⁻⁸ m²
