Unit Conversion

Standard units are also called SI units. SI units are used for measuring a physical quantity satisfying certain conditions. There are two types of units: fundamental units and derived units. Fundamental units are physical quantities that are independent, that is, they do not depend on other quantities like mass, length, or time. There are plenty of quantities in our lives which need to be measured and compared. Measuring is the comparison of a particular physical quantity with its reference value. A unit is a measure of a fixed physical quantity. A physical quantity is the product of a unit and the numerical value we need to compare with.

Problem 4: Buoyancy I Pontoon bridges use buoyant forces to support loads. This problem will ask you to consider a 10 ft section of the pontoon bridge sketched below. The bridge deck is 4 ft wide, and each 10 ft section has five 55 gallon drums on each side. Each drum has a diameter of 22 in, so the cross-sectional area of each drum is 2.64 ft², and each drum is 2.79 ft tall. Assume the bridge deck and the bracing system for the drums weigh 2300 lb per 10 ft section but occupy negligible volume. The bridge floats in water with y = 62.3 lb/ft³.
