Question

1. convert each of the following measurements to the SI base unit... the equal sign after the problems illustrates my answer that I got from doing the problems myself. can someone very if I got the answer right, and if not explain why and the process of getting the right answer

45mg=.045

125ns=.0000125
10.7ul=.0000107
12.53456kg=12,534.6

Answer 1

The answer is the first one

Answer 2

Answer: The conversions are given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit is defined as the quantity that is used as a standard for measurement.

S.I unit of mass if kilograms.

S.I unit of time is seconds.

S.I unit of volume is cubic meters.

The given conversions are not correct.

• For Option 1: 45 mg

Converting this into kilograms, we use the conversion factor:

`1kg=10^(6)mg`

So,
`45mg* ((1kg)/(10^6mg))=0.000045kg`

Hence, the correct value is 0.000045 kg

• For Option 2: 125 ns

Converting this into seconds, we use the conversion factor:

`1s=10^(9)ns`

So,
`125ns* ((1s)/(10^9ns))=0.000000125s`

Hence, the correct value is 0.000000125 ns

• For Option 3:
  `10.7\mu L`

Converting this into cubic meters, we use the conversion factor:

`1m^3=10^(9)\mu L`

So,
`10.7\mu L* ((1m^3)/(10^9\mu L))=0.0000000107m^3`

Hence, the correct value is
`0.0000000107m^3`

• For Option 4: 12.53456 kg

The given value is already in its S.I unit.

Hence, the correct value is 12.53456 kg
