Conversion Factor Practice
1. In Hindu chronology, the longest time measure is a para. One para equals 311 040 000 000 000
years. Calculate this value in megahours and in nanoseconds. Write your answers in scientific
notation.
2. A chest is 2.5 cubits in length and 1.5 cubits in width and height. Given that a cubit is equivalent
to 17.7 in., find the volume of the chest.
3. What is the speed in miles per hour of a beam of light traveling at 3.00 x 108 m/s?
4. Many highways have a speed limit of 55 mi/h. Is this speed greater than, less than, or equal to 55
km/h? Find the speed limit in km/h that corresponds to 55 mi/h. (0.6 mi = 1 km)
5. The Star of Africa, a diamond in the royal scepter of the British crown jewels, has a mass of 530.2
carats, where 1 carat = 0.20 g. Given that 1.00 kg has an approximate weight of 2.21 lb, what is
the weight of this diamond in pounds?
