A thermocouple was calibrated to give Celsius temperature. In the ice bath the voltage reading was 0.250 V, and in boiling water at 736 Torr the reading was 1.20 V. Derive the conversion equation between Volts and temp. C.
So if I'm working this right, it should go like this:
0.0 degrees C= m(0.250mV) + b
100 degrees C= m(1.20mV) + b
b= (0.250mV)m
100 degrees C= (1.20mV)m + (0.250mV)m
m=100/(1.20+0.250)=
69.0 degrees C/mV
b=0.250m= 0.250x 69.0= 17.25
Temp. C=69.0E + 17.25
--------------------
And also for working basic conversions with sig figs such as:
A piece of metal measures 0.15m x 6 cm x 12mm If it weighs 486 g, what is its density in units g/cm3 and kg/dm3?
And temp. conversions: Given: -196*C = -321 *F, 77 K
And given 3.0 K= -454.4 *F, -270.2*C
And so on and so forth, my TA seems to always mark off for sig figs. I know for +/- the number of sig figs is the number with the least number of decimal places, and mult. and divide is the number with the least number of sig figs, but I never seem to record the right answer according to them, witch is really starting to confuse me because I don't see where I would be going wrong.

-b = (0.250 mV)m) and b is the negative of what you have.
The speech encourages which of the following? Explain
A. colonialism
B. containment
C. imperialism
D. isolationism
William H. Seward's Speech at Sika, August 12, 1869, was given during his travels as Secretary of State under President Andrew Johnson. In the speech, Seward discusses America's relationship with the world and advocates for a policy of expansion and increased international trade. He emphasizes the importance of the United States' role in the world and the benefits of connections with other nations.
Based on the content of the speech, it can be inferred that Seward's encouragement aligns with C. imperialism, as he advocates for the expansion of American influence and trade beyond its borders.
