Practical examples
Case Study 1: Converting feet to meters for a foldable solar panel
Project description
Let’s say you’re working on a project to install a foldable solar panel that will be used for a remote campsite. The panel has dimensions of 2 feet wide by 5 feet long. The goal is to convert these dimensions to meters to meet project specifications that require measurements in the metric system.
Initial data
- Panel Width: 2ft
- Panel length: 5 feet
Step by Step
We know that 1 foot is equivalent to 0.3048 meters. We will use this conversion to transform the solar panel dimensions from ft to m.
- Width conversion:
Width in meters = 2 feet × 0.3048 meters/foot
Width in meters = 2 × 0.3048 = 0.6096 meters
- Length conversion:
Length in meters = 5 feet × 0.3048 meters/foot
Length in meters = 5 × 0.3048 = 1.524 meters
Conversion Results
- Solar panel width: 0.6096 meters
- Solar panel length: 1,524 meters
Case Study 2: Transformation of meters to feet for a solar panel for a country house
Project description
Let’s say you’re working on a solar panel installation project for a country house . The solar panel has dimensions of 1.5 meters wide by 2.5 meters long. The goal is to convert these dimensions to feet to meet project specifications that require measurements in the imperial system.
Initial data
- Panel width: 1.5 meters
- Panel length: 2.5 meters
Step by Step
We know that 1 meter is equivalent to 3.28084 feet. We will use this transformation to convert the solar panel dimensions from meters to feet.
- Width conversion:
Width in feet = 1.5 meters × 3.28084 feet/meter
Width in feet = 1.5 × 3.28084 = 4.92126 feet
- Length conversion:
Length in feet = 2.5 meters × 3.28084 feet/meter
Length in feet = 2.5 × 3.28084 = 8.2021 feet
Conversion results
- Solar panel width: 4.92126 feet
- Solar panel length: 8.2021 feet
