Complex Unit Conversions Name ___________________________________
1. As an astute observer walking around on continental crust (granite), you might decide to test the hypothesis that the Earth is made entirely of granite. You weigh a 1.00 cubic ft piece of granite on your home scale and find that it weighs 171 lbs. Thus you determine that the granite has a density of 171 lb/ft3. Convert your granite's density to g/cm3. Given the information above, could the earth be made completely of granite?
2. Given that basalt seems to well up when ocean crust pulls apart at Mid-Ocean ridges, you might decide that maybe the entire Earth is made of basalt. On your bathroom scale, a 64 in 3 (4in x 4in x 4in) block of basalt weighs 116 ounces. Use this information to calculate whether the average density of the Earth (5.5 g/cm3) can be explained by an Earth made completely of basalt.
3. A family pool holds 10,000 gallons of water. How many cubic meters is this?
4. Chicago uses 1.2 x 109 gallons of water/day. How many gallons per second must be pumped from the lake every second to supply the city?
5. Change 60 miles/ hour to _____ft/sec.
6. Change 55 miles/hour to km/sec.
7. Change 67 degrees F to degrees C.
8. Change 81 degrees Farenheit to Kelvins.
