Re: [Phys-l] Fun/cool unit conversion example?



This is basically equivalent to my automobile version: What is the fuel
consumption of your vehicle in square inches (or whatever)? Invert miles per
gallon to get an area and convert into other area units.

What is the cross sectional area of the cylinder of fuel needed for a
jet airliner to fly?
