freezer dinner unit analysis

hooray for unit analysis!

freezer dinner says: for 1000W microwave, put in for 3 mins. i have a 900W microwave.

1000W = 1kJ/sec
1kJ/sec * 60sec/1min * 3min = 180kJ total energy to be supplied to the food
180kJ / 0.9kJ/sec = 200 secs = 3:20 in the microwave

of course, that's in a perfect world. i'll put it in for 3:30 just to be safe ^_^

the aforementioned freezer dinner is the first one i've bought since the first time liz, anneka and i went to giant tiger all together in first year (september 2004) and i grabbed one, making today's my second ever. ..!

i think i grabbed the wrong one though. there was ginger chicken and shrimp marinara. and for some fucked up reason, i grabbed the shrimp....probably because the box was bigger. go me. :( this is gonna suck. heh.

geek, food
