LET’S BEGIN TO TALK ABOUT DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS… What is the reciprocal of ? What is
6
What is
7
OUR GOAL WITH DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS IS TO MAKE UNITS CANCEL OUT TO…… 1
8
STEPS: 1.Given quantity w/its unit 2.Set up conversion factor 3.Divide Units – only the desired unit should be left 4.Solve the problem

EXAMPLE 1 Let’s look a the metric problems a different way. Convert 35m to km.
10
An aspirin tablet contains 325 mg of active ingredient. How much is this in cg? EXAMPLE 2 325 mg1 cg = 325 110 mg 10 = 32.5cg of active ingredient

EXAMPLE 3 Bob studied for 2.5 hrs. How many minutes did he study for? Initial unit = hr.Final unit = _______
12
HOW MANY MINUTES ARE IN 2.5 HOURS ? Initial unit 2.5 hr Conversion Final factor unit 2.5 hr x 60 min = 150 min 1 hr DIVIDE OUT
13
EXAMPLE 4 How many seconds are in 1.4 days? Unit plan: days hr min seconds 1.4 days x 24 hr x ?? 1 day 13
14
SOLUTION Unit plan: days hr min seconds 1.4 day x 24 hr x 60 min x 60 sec 1 day 1 hr 1 min = 120,960 sec
15
EXAMPLE 5 John Isner serves 140 miles per hour. How fast is that in feet per second?
16
SOLUTION 140 miles x 5,280 ft. x 1 hr x 1 min = 1 hr 1 mile 60 min 60 sec. = 205.3 ft/sec.
17
EXAMPLE 6 If a 3 day boating trip covers 150 miles and you are boating 5 hours a day, how many miles must you boat each hour? 10 miles per hour
