Question:
The record for the largest glass bottle was set in 1992 by u team in Millville, New Jersey-they blew a bottle with a volume of 193 U.S. fluid gallons.
(a) How much short of 1.0 million cubic centimeters is that?
(b) If the bottle were filled with water at the leisurely rate of 1.8 g/min, how long would the filling take? Water has a density of 1000 kg/m3.
Step by Step Answer:
a We find the volume in cubic centimeters 231 in 1 gal 193 ...View the full answer
