Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to determine how the deflation of a soccer ball affects the length that it travels when kicked. Due to our many years of soccer experience, we decided to choose this experiment to prove our theory that the amount of air inside of the ball has an effect on the distance that it travels. This theory of ours spirals from the unwritten rule that there is a “perfect” ball in soccer; not too full of air, but not too flat at the same time. As soccer players

Module “A or B” This section gathers users Age, Height, Weight. Then it converts your height into centimeters and weight into kilograms. Once the user’s height and weight is converted, the program calculates your BMR first without activity. Then it figures out your BMR with the user’s enter activity level. Start Assign “OZ=16” Assign “KG=.454” Assign “IN=12” Assign “CM=2.54” Display "Enter your gender by typing Male or Female" Input “Gender” Display "Enter your age in number of years" Input

significant figures. Significant figures: A method for reporting the results of a measurement that includes all known or certain digits and a final digit that is considered uncertain. SI Units: The International System of units that is based on the metric system and uses SI derived units for length, mass, time, etc. and prefixes to indicate magnitude (i.e., powers of 10). Density: The physical property of a substance that corresponds to the ratio of its mass to volume. This property does not depend

which includes a description of the physical dimensions of the fish (length and weight). Your supervisor asks that you send the fish and a report about the fish (length and weight) to the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France. Because France uses the metric system, you must convert the figures for length and weight. Complete the following chart by converting the inches and pounds to centimeters and kilograms: |Physical measurements of specimen | |Length

conversions will make the lives of people in America that much easier. America should convert to the metric system. If America were to convert to the metric system making conversions and measuring would be easier, overseas trade would be better, and knowing how to measure out different items overseas wouldn’t be difficult. In order to keep doing trades overseas America needs to convert its products to the metric system. According to an article from the Christian Science Monitor, “ US companies are losing
