measurement conversions..   (09/06/2010, 7:09 PM)

i was hoping you could help me with these two problems i am stuck on in my homework set:




Convert 1.09 yr/5.10 um into units of ns/mi.

Note: the symbol um stands for micrometer, and the units of ns stands for nanoseconds.

Also you do need to put in the correct unit to receive full credit.

Also power of 10 is handled with E, ie 2.5 X 10^2 is written 2.5E2



and the second one is


Convert the number 8.53 lbs ft^3 /hr^2 into units of N m^3 /s^2

Note: recall / stands for divison and N stands for Newtons




thanks a lot, amber
