Chapter 1 IDENTIFY: Convert ft 2 to m 2 and then to hectares. SET UP: 1.00 hectare = 1.00 × 104 m 2 . 1 ft = 0.3048 m.

⎛ 43,600 ft 2 ⎞ ⎛ 0.3048 m ⎞2 ⎛ 1.00 hectare ⎞ EXECUTE: The area is (12.0 acres) ⎜ = 4.86 hectares. ⎟⎟ ⎜ ⎟ ⎜ 4 2⎟ ⎜ ⎝ 1 acre ⎠ ⎝ 1.00 ft ⎠ ⎝ 1.00 × 10 m ⎠ EVALUATE: Since 1 ft = 0.3048 m, 1 ft 2 = (0.3048) 2 m 2 . 1.7.

IDENTIFY: Convert miles/gallon to km/L. SET UP: 1 mi = 1.609 km. 1 gallon = 3.788 L. ⎛ 1.609 km ⎞⎛ 1 gallon ⎞ EXECUTE: (a) 55.0 miles/gallon = (55.0 miles/gallon) ⎜ ⎟⎜ ⎟ = 23.4 km/L. ⎝ 1 mi ⎠⎝ 3.788 L ⎠ 1500 km 64.1 L = 64.1 L. = 1.4 tanks. 23.4 km/L 45 L/tank EVALUATE: 1 mi/gal = 0.425 km/L.

32 ft/s 2 = 9.8 m/s 2 is accurate to only two significant figures. IDENTIFY: We know the density and mass; thus we can find the volume using the relation density = mass/volume = m/V . The radius is then found from the volume equation for a sphere and the result for the volume. SET UP: Density = 19.5 g/cm3 and mcritical = 60.0 kg. For a sphere V = 43 π r 3.

IDENTIFY: Model the bacteria as spheres. Use the diameter to find the radius, then find the volume and surface area using the radius. SET UP: From Appendix B, the volume V of a sphere in of its radius is V = 43 π r 3 while its surface area A is A = 4π r 2 . The radius is one-half the diameter or r = d/2 = 1.0 μ m. Finally, the necessary equalities for this problem are: 1 μ m = 10−6 m; 1 cm = 10−2 m; and 1 mm = 10−3 m. 3

⎛ 10−6 m ⎞ ⎛ 1 cm ⎞3 EXECUTE: V = 43 π r 3 = 43 π (1.0 μ m)3 ⎜ = 4.2 × 10−12 cm3 and ⎜ 1 μ m ⎟⎟ ⎜⎝ 10−2 m ⎟⎠ ⎝ ⎠ 2

This is reasonable because bacteria are not visible without a microscope. IDENTIFY: When numbers are multiplied or divided, the number of significant figures in the result can be no greater than in the factor with the fewest significant figures. When we add or subtract numbers it is the location of the decimal that matters. SET UP: 12 mm has two significant figures and 5.98 mm has three significant figures. EXECUTE: (a) (12 mm) × (5.98 mm) = 72 mm 2 (two significant figures) 5.98 mm = 0.50 (also two significant figures) 12 mm (c) 36 mm (to the nearest millimeter) (d) 6 mm (e) 2.0 (two significant figures) EVALUATE: The length of the rectangle is known only to the nearest mm, so the answers in parts (c) and (d) are known only to the nearest mm.

The percent error is 0.45%. EVALUATE: The close agreement is a numerical accident. IDENTIFY: To asses the accuracy of the approximations, we must convert them to decimals. SET UP: Use a calculator to calculate the decimal equivalent of each fraction and then round the numeral to the specified number of significant figures. Compare to π rounded to the same number of significant figures. EXECUTE: (a) 22/7 = 3.14286 (b) 355/113 = 3.14159 (c) The exact value of π rounded to six significant figures is 3.14159. EVALUATE: We see that 355/113 is a much better approximation to π than is 22/7. IDENTIFY: Express 200 kg in pounds. Express each of 200 m, 200 cm and 200 mm in inches. Express 200 months in years. SET UP: A mass of 1 kg is equivalent to a weight of about 2.2 lbs.1 in. = 2.54 cm. 1 y = 12 months. EXECUTE: (a) 200 kg is a weight of 440 lb. This is much larger than the typical weight of a man. ⎛ 1 in. ⎞ 3 (b) 200 m = (2.00 × 104 cm) ⎜ ⎟ = 7.9 × 10 inches. This is much greater than the height of a person. ⎝ 2.54 cm ⎠ (c) 200 cm = 2.00 m = 79 inches = 6.6 ft. Some people are this tall, but not an ordinary man. (d) 200 mm = 0.200 m = 7.9 inches. This is much too short. ⎛ 1y ⎞ (e) 200 months = (200 mon) ⎜ ⎟ = 17 y. This is the age of a teenager; a middle-aged man is much ⎝ 12 mon ⎠ older than this. EVALUATE: None are plausible. When specifying the value of a measured quantity it is essential to give the units in which it is being expressed. IDENTIFY: Estimate the number of people and then use the estimates given in the problem to calculate the number of gallons. SET UP: Estimate 3 × 108 people, so 2 × 108 cars. EXECUTE: (Number of cars × miles/car day)/(mi/gal) = gallons/day (2 × 108 cars × 10000 mi/yr/car × 1 yr/365 days)/(20 mi/gal) = 3 × 108 gal/day

EVALUATE: Our estimate assumes that each cm3 of air is breathed in only once, where in reality not all the oxygen is absorbed from the air in each breath. Therefore, a somewhat smaller volume would actually be required. IDENTIFY: Estimation problem. SET UP: Estimate that the pile is 18 in.× 18 in.× 5 ft 8 in.. Use the density of gold to calculate the mass of gold in the pile and from this calculate the dollar value. EXECUTE: The volume of gold in the pile is V = 18 in.× 18 in.× 68 in. = 22,000 in.3. Convert to cm3:

V = 22,000 in.3 (1000 cm3/61.02 in.3 ) = 3.6 × 105 cm3 .

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 , so the mass of this volume of gold is m = (19.3 g/cm3 )(3.6 × 105 cm3 ) = 7 × 106 g.

The monetary value of one gram is $10, so the gold has a value of ($10/gram)(7 × 106 grams) = $7 × 107 ,

or about $100 × 106 (one hundred million dollars). EVALUATE: This is quite a large pile of gold, so such a large monetary value is reasonable. IDENTIFY: Estimate the number of beats per minute and the duration of a lifetime. The volume of blood pumped during this interval is then the volume per beat multiplied by the total beats. SET UP: An average middle-aged (40 year-old) adult at rest has a heart rate of roughly 75 beats per minute.

EVALUATE: Since V ∼ d 3 , if our estimate of the diameter of a drop is off by a factor of 2 then our estimate of the number of drops is off by a factor of 8. IDENTIFY: Draw the vector addition diagram to scale. G G SET UP: The two vectors A and B are specified in the figure that accompanies the problem. G G G EXECUTE: (a) The diagram for R = A + B is given in Figure 1.24a. Measuring the length and angle of G R gives R = 9.0 m and an angle of θ = 34°.

G G G G G G (c) − A − B = −( A + B ), so − A − B has a magnitude of 9.0 m (the same as A + B ) and an angle with the G G + x axis of 214° (opposite to the direction of A + B ). G G G G G G (d) B − A = −( A − B ), so B − A has a magnitude of 22 m and an angle with the + x axis of 70° (opposite G G to the direction of A − B ).
