I needed something quick for how much water the model person would use. That was "an average person needs eight cups of water a day". 8 cups / 24 hours = 0.3333 cups/hour A quarter of that is 0.0833 cups / 15 minutes. 1.000 litre = 4.227 cups 0.0833 / 4.227 = 0.0197 litres But I'd needed half a litre, not a litre in the conversion, so the number is doubled for 0.0394. As a percentage, that's rounded to 4%. @shadowfals @chaosmonkey @saxicola @shadowfals I always welcome and appreciate open, honest, transparent and civil discourse / reactions based on facts and logic. π The calculation has definitely given me food for thought. @chaosmonkey @shadowfals @shadowfals @saxicola I appreciate the calculation and by extension your transparency. β€οΈ Personally I would probably have started with the premise of "the average person requires at least two litres of water per day" but that's what I'm used to. I think I'll try out some similar calculations. Maybe create a site where people can compare energy expenditure between various things like "the average google search" or "three minutes of youtube" @chaosmonkey where I live, cups are more commonly used as measurement. I had to look up the conversion to litres. Starting with litres would definitely be simpler! |
