A. Tools for Problem Solving I am driving in Canada. I have a journey of 120 km and I need to estimate how many liters of gas to buy. I know my car fuel mileage is 24 miles per gallon. (1 mile is 1.6 km, 1 gallon is 3.79 liters) Be systematic Ask yourself these questions –What do we know to start with? –Where do we want to go? –How do we get there? –Does it make sense?

A. Tools for Problem Solving We can convert from one system of units to another by a method called dimensional analysis using conversion factors. Unit 1  conversion factor = Unit 2 Converting Units of Measurement

A. Tools for Problem Solving Conversion factors are built from an equivalence statement which shows the relationship between the units in different systems. 1 inch = 2.54cm or 1 cm = inches Conversion factors are ratios of the two parts of the equivalence statement that relate the two units. 1 inch or 2.54cm or inches or 1 cm. 2.54cm 1 inch1 cm0.394 inches Converting Units of Measurement

A. Tools for Problem Solving 2.85 cm = ? in cm  conversion factor = ? in. Equivalence statement2.54 cm = 1 in. Possible conversion factors Converting Units of Measure Does this answer make sense?

A. Tools for Problem Solving Tools for Converting from One Unit to Another Step 1 Find an equivalence statement that relates the 2 units. Step 2 Choose the conversion factor by looking at the direction of the required change (cancel the unwanted units). Step 3 Multiply the original quantity by the conversion factor. Step 4 Make sure you have the correct number of significant figures. Go back and solve the Driving Problem in Canada

B. Temperature Conversions There are three commonly used temperature scales, Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin.

B. Temperature Conversions Note that –The temperature unit is the same size. –The zero points are different. To convert from Celsius to Kelvin we need to adjust for the difference in zero points. Converting Between the Kelvin and Celsius Scales

B. Temperature Conversions 70 o C = ? K T C = T K Converting Between the Kelvin and Celsius Scales = 343 K

B. Temperature Conversions Note Converting Between the Fahrenheit and Celsius Scales –The different size units –The different zero points To convert between Fahrenheit and Celsius we need to make 2 adjustments. T oC = ?

Convert These Temperatures 200 o C to K -52 o C to K 345K to o C 11K to o C 212 o F to o C 32 o F to o C 525 o F to o C 25 o C to o F -20 o C to o F 200 o F to K

At what temperature would a Celsius and a Fahrenheit thermometer read the same? T o F =T o C

C. Density Density is the amount of matter present in a given volume of substance. Write down all the statements relating the three properties D, M and V
