In this lab students will practice converting units of measure between the metric system and the
“American” system; practice subtracting decimal numbers; and use the average lapse rate.
Converting measurements of distance
1.
65 miles = _____kilometers (for an approximate result, multiply the length value by 1.609).
Show your work for full credit.
65 * 1.609 = 104.585
2.
25 kilometers = ___________miles (for an approximate result, divide the length value by
1.609). Show your work for full credit.
25 / 1.609 = 15.538
3.
2 inches = _________centimeters (multiply the length value by 2.54). Show your work for full
credit.
2 * 2.54 = 5.08
Subtracting decimals using Figure 3-3 (page 59 in the textbook)
4.
What is the difference in percentage of nitrogen in the atmosphere to the percentage of
carbon dioxide? Show your work for full credit.
According to the Figure 3-3 in the textbook:
Nitrogen - 78.08% in the atmosphere
Carbon Dioxide – 0.04% in the atmosphere
78.08% - 0.04% = 78.04%
There is 78.04 % more nitrogen in the atmosphere than Carbon Dioxide.
5.
What is the difference in percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere to the percentage of
argon? Show your work for full credit.
According to the Figure 3-3 in the textbook:
Oxygen – 20.95% in the atmosphere
Argon – 0.93% in the atmosphere
20.95% - 0.93% = 20.02%
There is 20.02% more oxygen in the atmosphere than Argon.
Converting measurements of temperature
6.
20°C = _____°F To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit: (°C×1.8)+32°=°F
Show your work for full credit.
20*1.8= 36+32= 68°F
7.
120°F = _____°C To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius: (°F −32°)÷1.8=°C
Show your work for full credit.
120-32=88 /1.8 = 48.88 or 49°C
Calculating temperature using the average lapse rate
8.
If the temperature of the air is 15°C at sea level, use the average lapse rate (6.5°C per 1000
meters) to calculate the expected temperature at the top of a 5000-meter-high mountain:
_____°C. Show your work for full credit.
The temperature will decrease with increasing altitude at a rate of 6.5°C per 1000 meters
elevation change.
5000 meters – 0 meters (sea level is 0 elevation) = 5000 meters difference in elevation
6.5°C * 5 (lapses) = 32.5°C total change in temperature
15°C - 32.5°C = -17.5°C at 5000 meters altitude
The temperature at the top of a 5000-meter-high mountain would be –17.5°C.
9.
If the air temperature outside a jet airplane flying at 36,000 feet is −30°F, use the average
lapse rate (3.6°F per 1000 feet) to estimate the temperature at sea level below: _____°F.
Show your work for full credit.
The temperature will increase with decreasing altitude at a rate of 3.6°F per 1000 feet elevation
change.
3.6 * 36 (lapses) = 129.

Using the data below (included for context), what is the equation for the trendline for the data points that fall in the linear range (linear range was found to be timepoints 1 min to 4 min,)? Your answer should be in the form of y = mx + b. Make sure that your trendline only includes the data points that fall in the linear range. In order to determine the trendline using Excel, you may need to create a new graph that only includes the earlier data points. With your new trendline, what is the initial velocity when 1 nM OXA-M290 is mixed with 60 μM nitrocefin? Make sure to include units in your answer.

1. A farmer needs to administer a dose of albendazole dewormer to a cow that weighs 992 lbs. The dosage recommended by his veterinarian is 10 mg per kg of body weight. How many mg of albendazole should the farmer administer? [1 kg = 2.205 lbs] Calculate the weight of this cow in kg. Round to 4 decimal places. Then, using the exact weight in kg (not your rounded weight) and the medical conversion, determine the dose that the cow should get in mg. Round to two decimal places.Using your answer from the previous slide, if albendazole is only available as a liquid, and each milliliter of the liquid contains 125 mg of albendazole, how many mL of the liquid should the farmer administer? Round to two decimal places.
2.The doctor orders a single dose of 20 mg/kg for every does dose of amoxicillin oral suspension for a toddler who weighs 25 lbs. [1 kg = 2.205 lbs] Helpful hint: Always start with weight first! Calculate the weight of this toddler in kg. Round to 4 decimal places. Then,…
