    Engineering in Higher Education - significant figures

    Engineering in Higher Education -- significant figures I am currently in my 4th semester. It seems that every engineering textbooks I encounter have no regard of significant figures (SF). Every problems and examples I encounter are like that. Mostly integers, some have decimal figures, but...

    Calculating height given pressures and temperatures

    Thanks you all for your responses! Still confused with conversion. For example \ln \frac{46°F}{70°F} ≠ \ln \frac{506°R}{530°R} If the units inside ln are the same, then the number inside ln is without unit (the units cancel each other). Thus how come the calculations above are not equal...

    Calculating height given pressures and temperatures

    Homework Statement On a certain day the barometric pressure at sea level is 30.1in.Hg, and the temperature is 70°F. The pressure gage in an airplane in flight indicates a pressure of 10.6psia, and the temperature gage shows the air temperature to be 46°F. Estimate as accurately as possible the...
