(5400 * 17000) / 750 x 10^9 which equals 0.000122, which he rounded off to 0.0001, or 0.01%. Since all the givens have two significant figures, he should have said 0.012%, but he was on the money.
If he had done that and you had entered it in your equation, you would have got 16,666 and, again, rounding to two significant figures, got the 17000 he used.
- 4,200 metric tons of the gas nitrogen trifluoride in the atmosphere in 2006.
- 5,400 metric tons of the gas nitrogen trifluoride in the atmosphere in 2008.
- An 11 percent tonnage increase per year.
- 17,000 times more potent as a global warming agent than a similar mass of CO2.
- Yet in the meanwhile, global temperatures dropped!
Also, the bulk of liquid crystal displays are made in China. Barely any are manufactured in the U.S..
