Units and Dimensions

These are generally defined as the terms which precede or describes the dimensions further. These are also further divided into two parts namely fundamental units and the derived units.

The layout of the town of Popperville is a perfectly square grid, with blocks 100 feet long (Fig. P3.8). A cat leaves her house and travels to Mike Mulligans place 4 blocks west and 3 blocks north of its starting point. After lapping up the milk that Mike always leaves out, the cat travels an additional 1 block north and 3 blocks east to Mrs. McGillicuttys house. a. On your paper, carefully copy the grid of streets that contains the cats house, Mike Mulligans house, and Mrs. McGillicuttys house. Then draw and label three displacement vectors on your sketch: r1, the cats displacement from her house to Mike Mulligans; r2, the cats displacement from Mike Mulligans to Mrs. McGillicuttys; and rtot, the cats total displacement. b. Write an equation to relate the three displacement vectors you have drawn. c. Is the distance the cat traveled greater than, less than, or equal to the magnitude of the cats total displacement vector? Explain. FIGURE P3.8

What are the units of volume? Suppose another student tells you that a cylinder of radius r and height h has volume given by πr^3 h. Explain why this cannot be right.
The quantity is a number with no dimensions, since it is a ratio of two lengths. Describe two or three other geometrical or physical quantities that are dimensionless. What are the units of volume? Suppose another student tells you that a cylinder of radius r and height h has volume given by πr^3 h. Explain why this cannot be right. Three archers each fire four arrows at a target. Joe’s four arrows hit at points 10 cm above, 10 cm below, 10 cm to the left, and 10 cm to the right of the center of the target. All four of Moe’s arrows hit within 1 cm of a point 20 cm from the center, and Flo’s four arrows all hit within 1 cm of the center. The contest judge says that one of the archers is precise but not accurate, another archer is accurate but not precise, and the third archer is both accurate and precise. Which description goes with which archer? Explain your reasoning.
