pls help me

The density of a fluid is given by the following empirical equation, where p = density (g/cm³) and P= pressure (N/m³) p = 1.13e(1.2x10-10 p) (a.) What are the units of 1.13 and 1.2 × 10-10 ? (b.) Derive the formula for p (Ib/ft°) as a function of P (Ib,/in?).

Expert Solution
Step 1

Empirical equation is a representation of physical quantities and relation between them. It is represented  in a mathematical expression involving constants. This is useful when we have large set of data and that data follows a trend. The trend  will have a equation form where we can find unknown quantities in the equation.
