Dimensions
All the other units are derived units.
Example:
Speed can be expressed with mph (miles per hour, or mi / h). It
is the unit of length divided by time (L / T).
Unit Conversion
Can't mix units when adding or subtracting - Need to convert
18 km + 5 mi is not 23
Can always multiply by 1
1 km =1000 m
1 = (1 km/1000m)
Can cancel units algebraically
Unit Conversion
Example 1
Convert 80 mi to km.
1 mi = 5280 ft
1 mi = 1.609 km
1 m = 3.281 ft
Example 2
Convert 60 mi/h to km/s, and m/s.
Example 3
Convert 60 mi/h to ft/s.
Unit Conversion
Example 4
You are driving on R33 near Logan with a speed of 26.67 m/s. The
speed limit there is 65 mph. Will you get a ticket because you are
speeding?

(8) 1.56x103 m3 (9) 1.56x106 m3
(0) 1.56x109 m3
ANSWER!
1560cm3 = 1560 cm*cm*cm (1m/100cm)*(1m/100cm)*(1m/100cm)
= 1.56x10-3 m3

Dimensions of left and right side of an equation must be the same.
Example: x = ½ vt2
L = (L/T) (T2) = LT
[Dimensions at left and right are not the same.
WRONG equation.]
Example: x = ½ vt
L = (L/T) (T) = L
[Dimensions at left and right are the same.
CORRECT equation.]

CAPA
-
Round up the numbers (e.g. 3.247321
3.25)
- Add the units: (e.g. cm, N (newton), deg (degree))
- Do not forget to put ‘-’ sign in vectors if the resultant vector is
in –x or –y direction.
- For m/s2
m/s^2
