what is the difference between to convert and conversion
ex. convert 623.5 F to K
ex. conversion 203.77miles/sec to cm/nsec
The term "convert" refers to the process of changing or transforming a value from one unit or system of measurement to another. It involves applying a specific equation or formula to obtain the desired result. On the other hand, "conversion" refers to the act of actually performing the conversion itself.
To convert 623.5 degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to Kelvin (K), you can use the following formula:
K = (°F - 32) * (5/9) + 273.15
Now, let's apply this formula to the given value of 623.5 ° = (623.5 - 32) * (5/9) + 273.15
K = 329.7222
Therefore, 623.5 °F is equivalent to 329.72 K (rounded to two decimal places).
For the second example, to convert 203.77 miles/sec to centimeters/nanosecond, we need to perform a two-step conversion. First, convert miles to centimeters and then convert seconds to nanoseconds:
1 mile = 160,934.4 centimeters
1 second = 1,000,000,000 nanoseconds
Now let's calculate the conversion:
203.77 miles/sec = (203.77 miles/sec) * (160,934.4 cm/mile) * (1 sec/1,000,000,000 ns)
= 327,328.0632 cm/nsec
Therefore, 203.77 miles/sec is equivalent to 327,328.06 centimeters/nanosecond (rounded to two decimal places).
