watt • minute to
cubic foot of atmosphere
step by step.
Calculation Breakdown
Set up the equation
\(1.0\left(watt \times minute\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(cubic \text{ } foot \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit \(\left(joule\right)\)
\(\text{Left side: 1.0 } \left(watt \times minute\right) = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 60.0\left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 60.0\left(J\right)}\)
\(\text{Right side: 1.0 } \left(cubic \text{ } foot \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right) = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 2869.2044809344\left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 2869.2044809344\left(J\right)}\)
Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\(1.0\left(watt \times minute\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(cubic \text{ } foot \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
\(\text{Insert known values } =>\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 60.0} \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 2869.2044809344}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(joule\right)}\)
\(\text{Or}\)
\(1.0 \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 60.0} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(J\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 2869.2044809344} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(J\right)}\)
\(\text{Cancel SI units}\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 60.0} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \cancel{\left(J\right)}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 2869.2044809344} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \cancel{\left(J\right)}}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(60.0 = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 2869.2044809344\)
Switch sides
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 2869.2044809344 = 60.0\)
Isolate \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
Multiply both sides by \(\left(\dfrac{1.0}{2869.2044809344}\right)\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 2869.2044809344 \times \dfrac{1.0}{2869.2044809344} = 60.0 \times \dfrac{1.0}{2869.2044809344}\)
\(\text{Cancel}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{2869.2044809344}} \times \dfrac{1.0}{{\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{2869.2044809344}}} = 60.0 \times \dfrac{1.0}{2869.2044809344}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = \dfrac{60.0}{2869.2044809344}\)
Solve \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\approx0.0209117197\approx2.0912 \times 10^{-2}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(1.0\left(watt \times minute\right)\approx{\color{rgb(20,165,174)} 2.0912 \times 10^{-2}}\left(cubic \text{ } foot \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
