one drop of water has a mass of one gram. determine the mass of 625 drops of water in slugs

Answer 1

To convert the mass of water from grams to slugs, we need to use the conversion factor 1 slug = 14.59 kilograms.

First, we need to determine the mass of 625 drops of water in grams:
Mass of one drop of water = 1 gram
Mass of 625 drops of water = 1 gram * 625 = 625 grams

Next, we convert the mass from grams to kilograms:
Mass of 625 drops of water = 625 grams / 1000 = 0.625 kilograms

Finally, we convert the mass from kilograms to slugs:
Mass of 625 drops of water = 0.625 kilograms / 14.59 kilograms per slug ≈ 0.04286 slugs

Therefore, the mass of 625 drops of water is approximately 0.04286 slugs.
