3. 1.1 Time and Distance Thinking about time –What time is it? (e.g., 12:35 PDT) –How much time? (3:44.25, WR mile) –How is time measured? (min,sec,hrs) –Mixed units allow us to express time in wide variety of units. ex: 1 min = 60 s and 60 min = 1 hr, so there are 3,600 s in 1 hour!

4. 1.1 Time and Distance (cont.) Measuring Distance –Units of length: metric vs. English Length can be measured in meters, centimeters, kilometers or inches, feet, yards, and miles –Why were units invented? Communication between various people (common “language”) Standard for consistency -Scientists use metric units -You use units (usually English) everyday! (ounces, pounds, gallons,…)
