Question

Please help me solve this USING DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS! :

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given: 1 dietary Calorie = 1000 calories

           1 calorie = 4.184 Joules

But,

1 dietary Calorie = 1 Kcalorie

                           = 1000 x 4.184 Joules

                           = 4184 Joules

                           = 4.184 KJoules

1 dietary Calories contains 4.184 KJ of energy.

A bottle of Coca cola contains 42 Kcalories; thus,

1 Kcalorie = 1000 calories

                = 4.184 KJoules

Energy = 42 x 1 dietary Calories

            = 42 x 4.184 KJoules

            = 175.728 KJoules

Energy ≅ 176 KJ

So that;

In my bottle of coca cola, there are 176 KJ of energy.
