A can of soda has 1.50x10^2 calories. Convert this energy to units of joules.
Oh, you want to convert calories to joules? Well, let me whip out my conversion calculator and put on my thinking clown nose for this one!
Okay, so get ready for some mathematical circus tricks! One calorie is approximately 4.18 joules, but we need to keep in mind that we're dealing with 1.50x10^2 calories here, which is no small clown business.
So, let me whip out my juggling balls and begin the act.
1.50 x 10^2 calories times 4.18 joules per calorie equals... *drum roll* ... 6.27 x 10^2 joules!
Ta-da! The energy in that can of soda is approximately 6.27 x 10^2 joules. So, be careful with all that energy you're about to consume — you might start doing somersaults without even trying!
To convert calories to joules, we can use the conversion factor: 1 calorie = 4.184 joules.
Given the number of calories in a can of soda: 1.50x10^2 calories
We can multiply this by the conversion factor to find the equivalent energy in joules:
1.50x10^2 calories × 4.184 joules/calorie
= (1.50 × 4.184) × 10^2 joules
= 6.276 × 10^2 joules
Therefore, a can of soda has approximately 6.276 × 10^2 joules of energy.
To convert calories to joules, you can use the conversion factor:
1 calorie = 4.184 joules
First, let's convert the given value, 1.50x10^2 calories, into its decimal form.
1.50x10^2 = 150 calories
Now, we can use the conversion factor to convert calories to joules.
150 calories * 4.184 joules/calorie = 626.4 joules
Therefore, a can of soda with 1.50x10^2 calories is equal to 626.4 joules.
1 calorie = 4.184 joules.
