AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on converting various colors to red using specified conversion factors. The user presents two calculations: converting 25.1 pink to red and 486 black to red. The calculations yield 1.57 red from 25.1 pink and 45.6 red from 486 black, both of which are confirmed as correct. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding unit conversions in color metrics. Mastery of these conversions is highlighted as a valuable skill.

Homework Statement


use the given conversion factors to complete the calculations that follow.

2.00red=5.00 blue 2.00yellow=6.25pink 5.00blue=8.00green

3.00green=8.00black 5.12yellow=1.00red 2.00black=3.00pink

im just going to put the last 2 questions up I am pretty sure I have this right but I can't trust myself.

1)25.1 pink equals how many red?

2)486 black is the same as how many red?


The Attempt at a Solution



1) 25.1 pink(2.00yellow/6.25pink)=8.032yellow(1.00red/5.12yellow)=1.57 red


2) 486black(3.00pink/2.00black)=729pink(2.00yellow/6.25pink)=233.28yellow(1.00red/5.12yellow)=45.6red

Those are correct. You'll be an expert on converting units!
 
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
