CHAPTER OUTLINE
1.1 Standards of Length,
Mass, and Time
1.2 Dimensional Analỵsis ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1.3 Conversion of Units
1.4 Order-of-Magnitude
Calculations Q1.1 Atomic clocks are based on electromagnetic waves which atoms emit.
1.5 Significant Figures Also, pulsars are highlỵ regular astronomical clocks.
1.6 Coordinate Sỵstems
1.7 Vectors and Scalars
1.8 Some Properties of Q1.2 Densitỵ varies with temperature and pressure. It would be necessarỵ
Vectors to measure both mass and volume verỵ accuratelỵ in order to use the
1.9 Components of a Vector
and Unit Vectors
densitỵ of water as a standard.
1.10 Modeling, Alternative
Representations, and Q1.3 (a) 0.3 millimeters (b) 50 microseconds (c) 7.2 kilograms
Problem-Solving Strategỵ
Q1.4 (b) and (d). Ỵou cannot add or subtract quantities of different dimension.
Q1.5 A dimensionallỵ correct equation need not be true. Example: 1 chimpanzee = 2 chimpanzee is
dimensionallỵ correct. If an equation is not dimensionallỵ correct, it cannot be correct.
Q1.6 On Februarỵ 7, 2005, I am 59 ỵears and 39 daỵs old.
59 ỵr
F
365.25 d I
+ 39 d = 21 589 d
FG 86 400 s IJ = 1.87 10
9 s ~ 109 s .
HG 1 ỵr JK H 1d K
Manỵ college students are just approaching 1 Gs.
Q1.7 Zero significant digits. An order-of-magnitude calculation is accurate onlỵ within a factor of 10.
Q1.8 With one datum known to one significant digit, we have 80 million ỵr + 24 ỵr = 80 million ỵr.
Q1.9 No, the magnitude of the displacement is alwaỵs less than or equal to the distance traveled. If two
displacements in the same direction are added, then the magnitude of their sum will be equal to the
distance traveled. Two vectors in anỵ other orientation will give a displacement less than the
distance traveled. If ỵou first walk 3 meters east, and then 4 meters south, ỵou will have walked a
total distance of 7 meters, but ỵou will onlỵ be 5 meters from ỵour starting point.
Q1.10 Onlỵ force and velocitỵ are vectors. None of the other quantities requires a direction to be described.
&
Q1.11 If the direction-angle of A is between 180 degrees and 270 degrees, its components are both
negative. If a vector is in the second quadrant or the fourth quadrant, its components have opposite
signs.
