NASAsMetricConfusionCausedMarsOrbiterLoss September 30, 1999 CNN NASA lost a 125 million Mars orbiter because one engineering team used metric units while another used English units for a key spacecraft operation, according to a review finding released Thursday. For that reason, information failed to transfer between the Mars Climate Orbiter spacecraft team at Lockheed Martin in Colorado and the mission navigation team in California.

RolesofSignificantFigures(II) When two or more numbers are added/subtracted, the positions of the last significant figures of each number relative to the decimal point should be compared. Of these positions, the one farthest to the left is the position of the last permissible significant figure of the sum or difference.

Example (Problem2.40ofFelder) A solution containing a hazardous waste is charged into a storage tank and subjected to a chemical treatment, which is supposed to decompose the waste into harmless products. The concentration of the waste, C, has been reported to vary with time as C = 1/(a+bt). When sufficient time has elapsed for C to drop to 0.0100 g/L, the contents of the tank are discharged into a river that passes by the plant. The following data are taken for C and t:
T(h) C(g/L) 1.0 1.43 2.0 1.02 3.0 0.73 4.0 0.53 5.0 0.38

(a) If the given formula is correct, what plot would yield a straight line that would enable you to determine a and b? (b) Estimate a and b using the leastsquares method. Check the goodness of fitting by generating a plot of C versus t that shows both the measured and predicted value of C. (c) Using the results of part (b), estimate the initial concentration of the waste in the tank and the time required for C to research its discharge level. (d) You should have very little confidence in the time estimated in part (c). Explain why. (e) There are other potential problems with the whole waste disposal procedure. Suggest several of them.
