Question
Using the table of conversion factors on the inside front cover, convert(a) $1760$ miles/h to $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}$(b) $1400 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$ to $\mathrm{Ib}_{\mathrm{m}} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}$(c) $5.37 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{s}$ to hp.
Step 1
We know that 1 mile is approximately equal to 1.609 kilometers. So, we multiply 1760 miles by 1.609 to get the speed in kilometers per hour. \[1760 \, \text{miles/h} \times 1.609 \, \text{km/mile} = 2833.6 \, \text{km/h}\] Show more…
