6. When we multiply one unit by another, we leave a short _____________ b/w unit symbols. When we divide one unit by another, we use an _____________ ________ or a negative index.

7. Example 1 Density is defined as mass per unit volume. Write the SI unit for density Example 2 A Newton is defined as the force which accelerates a mass of 1 kilogram at the rate of 1 meter per second per second. Write down the combination of SI units which defines a Newton.

9. Smaller or larger multiples of these units are obtained by combining the base unit with a prefix chosen from a progression of powers of 10. Most commonly…

10. When stating the value of measurement, the prefix chosen should give the value as a number between 0.1 and 1,000

11. One nautical mile is written as 1.852 km (kilometers) ---NOT --- 1852 meters This is OVER 1,000

12. The SI does not allow the use of other units. Imperial units of measurement, as used in the U.S. for example, are NOT acceptable in the international system.

15. Example 4 Convert 3540 millimeters into meters Example 5 Convert 258 inches into centimeters

16. Example 6 Convert 15 knots into kilometers per hour Example 7 Convert 54 kWh into MJ

18. Example 9Example 10

20. Convert 4 hours and 12 minutes into seconds

22. Example 11 Example 12

23. When we take measurements we are usually reading some sort of scale. When we measure the length of an object, it is likely to fall between two divisions. So when we estimate our answer to the nearest millimeter, we may be inaccurate by up to half a millimeter.
