But is it? Let's take a look. at what is involved. Metrication is much more than simply learnin4 and using the metric system; related ramifica- tions include -7determiding the best time to convert in order.to minimize costs; -agreeing on metric sizes; -designing, producing, and building in metric dimensions; - -training personnel in metric;. - -obtaPqing metric supplies; \-- - changing laws, regulations, brdina'nces, and codes to accommodate the metric system; -informing customers about metric products; and ,--remaining,coMpetitive in the marketplace. Converting to the metric system would mean'thinking, heaiing4 and seeing things; in metrics--such as distances interms of meters, volume in terms of!jiters, weight in terms of grams, and tetperatures in Celsius., It would mean new sizes forscrews and bolts; new diStances on maps; new weaghtt.on scales; new speed limits on highways;new tools to f Tear S t. Upon removal, the report CED-38-12A hereon. cover date should be nor CED-q8,-128a repair automobiles'anp other products;, new sizes for beverages food, and clothing; new recipes in the kitcfien; andrevised educational . Materials. Of. course, it does not mean that . all sizes, distances, and .weights actually would change (although a great many would); but the termOology and numbers used to express them would. The change would not necessarily be:sUdden and completel a AetriCation would. affect Americans at work, in school, at home, in shopping, and in their leisure activities. Every organization, firm, industry, and level of government would Teel -its impact. 'mpact would surprise. many Americans and affect them all in maqv and varied ways. No.country:with an economy. and . population anywhere near .the size of the United States has converted to the metric system. A DECISION HAS NOT BEEN MADE Many believe a dedision.has.already been made to adopt the metric system in the United States. In fact many think conversion is mandatory, .66Pedially small buiinesses and the general public. ReSponses to GAO's questionnaires that 42 showedpercent of the :sMall.businesseS and 30 percent of the building and constructio 'aesocia 'ohs, and, 23 percent of_the people contact41.,in. a public opinion pollconducted for 'GAO, believed conversion to the metric sys- , .tem is mandatory. Less than 20 percent knew what th'b national policy is. The.passage of the Metric Conversion Act of 1975, with ,its provision of establishing a U.S. Metric-Boafd, is cited by many as being.-.an official national .. commitment. Just the name'of the act connotes conversion. 'Despite.opinions and statements to the contrary, it is not ,the,Current-United States policy to convert from the present cus- tomary system to the- metric system. - The 1975 Act and its legislative history show the national policy is,not to,prefer one system over the other but to provide for either to be predominant. on the basis of the voluntary actions of-those affected. The Metric Board's responsibility under the act is to devise and carry outa broad Kogram '7/ of planning,. coordination, and public educa-ion, _consistent with other national policy and inter- ests, with the aim of implementing the policy set forth in the act. It is to serve as a XI focal point for voluntary conversions to the metric system.. The Board is not to advocate metrication but is to'assibt various sectors when., and if, they choose to convert. At the time this report went to print, the Board had /not become fully operational. THE. INEVITABILPTY.tYNDROME There is insufficient evidence to support or refute the belief by. some that conversion to the metric system by the United States is inevitable. A majority-of the large and-Atall bueinetSes and building and construction associations responding to GAO's questionnaires believe conversion to the metric system is inevitable for their industries.. Also, a majority of State governments believe metrication is inevitable: for themselves. ,These beliefs, as much as any perceived bene-- . fit, have been a principal impetus for conver- . sign activity.in the United States. However, as more people believe in inevitability. and convert because of this.belief, conversion to the metric system accelerates. Several factors and beliefs have contributed to this inevitability syndrome including: -- Passage of the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 and its major provision for a U.S. Metric Bodrd. The name of the act connotes conver- sion. --Actions taken by some Federal agenCies;.such as the 'Federal';Highway Administration which. attempted .to require conversion of highway signs, the National Weather. Service's plan' to use the metric syste*fcrweether. report-- ing, and the suggestion by the Department Of'Agriculture to convert meat and poultry' labels. Tear Sheet i ii --The decision to convert by some of the "giants" of industry and the effect on cus- tomers and supplies. --The 1971, National Bureau of Standards report which stated that there was no Question that the United States should convert within a 10- year period. --Proposed legislation -in the early 1970s which called for a pre6sminantly metric.

  • La Física De Los Superhéroes
    James Kakalios LA FÍSICA DE LOS SUPERHÉROES Título original: The Physics of Superheroe James Kakalios, 2005 Traducción: Pedro Crespo Prólogo: Lawrence M. Krauss 2 En este libro el reconocido profesor universitario James Kakalios demuestra, con tan sólo recurrir a las nociones más elementales del álgebra, que con más frecuencia de lo que creemos, los héroes y los villanos de los cómics se comportan de acuerdo con las leyes de la física. Acudiendo a conocidas proezas de las aventuras de los superhéroes, el autor proporciona una diáfana a la vez que entretenida introducción a todo el panorama de la física, sin desdeñar aspectos de vanguardia de la misma, como son la física cuántica y la física del estado sólido. ¿Sabía que partiendo de la altura que era capaz de saltar Superman en sus primeros tiempos se puede deducir la intensidad de la gravedad en su planeta de origen, Krypton? ¿Y que, a la vez que apredemos nociones de física estelar y planetaria, es posible estimar la estructura de dicho mítico planeta, lo que de paso proporciona una explicación de la causa que provoca su cataclismo final? Éste es el libro que necesita leer si alguna vez se ha preguntado cómo la Mujer Invisible de los Cuatro Fantásticos puede ver cuando se vuelve transparente, si Atom podría viajar sobre un electrón a través de la línea telefónica o si la teoría electromagnética puede explicar por qué el Profesor X es capaz de leer la mente. Divertido y provocativo, La física de los superhéroes hará que tanto los físicos como los aficionados a los cómics exclamen: ¡genial! 3 CONTENIDO La física de los superhéroes Prólogo Prefacio Introducción: Los orígenes secretos: Cómo la ciencia rescató los cómics Sección I.
