Answer to Problem 5PQ

In SI units, 0.53cm is 5.3×103m.

Explanation of Solution

The SI unit for length is m. Here, m is meters and 1cm=102m.

Conclusion:

Multiply the 0.53cm by 102m1cm

  0.53cm=0.53cm102m1cm=5.3×103m

Thus, 0.53cm in SI unit is 5.3×103m.

Answer to Problem 5PQ

In SI units, 128.92g is 0.12892kg.

Explanation of Solution

The SI unit for mass is kg. Here, kg is kilograms and 1g=103kg.

Conclusion:

Multiply the 128.92g by 103kg1g

  128.92g=128.92g103kg1g=0.12892kg

Thus, 128.92g in SI unit is 0.12892kg.

Answer to Problem 5PQ

In SI units, 35.7cm3 is 3.57×105m3.

Explanation of Solution

The SI unit for length is m. Here, m is meters and 1cm3=106m3.

Conclusion:

Multiply the 35.7cm3 by 106m31cm3

  35.7cm3=35.7cm3106m31cm3=3.57×105m3

Thus, 35.7cm3 in SI unit is 3.57×105m3.

(d)

To determine

Represent 65.7g/cm3 in SI units.

(d)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 5PQ

In SI units, 65.7g/cm3 is 6.57×104kg/m3.

Explanation of Solution

The SI unit for length is m and for mass is kg.

Conclusion:

Multiply 65.7g/cm3 by 103kg1g1cm3106m3

  65.7g/cm3=65.7gcm3103kg1g1cm3106m3=6.57×104kg/m3

Thus, 65.7g/cm3 in SI unit is 6.57×104kg/m3.
