Represent each of the following units as a combination of primitive
dimensions where M=mass, L=length, T=time. As an example, miles per hour would
correspond to [L/T].

a. kilometer
b. quart
c. pascal
d. watt
e. newton
f. horsepower


Sagot :

Answer:

a. unit of length: [L]

b. unit of volume: [[tex]L^3[/tex]]

c. unit of pressure:[tex]P=\frac{F}{A} \equiv\frac{[MLT^{-2}]}{[L^2]}[/tex] [tex][ML^{-1}T^{-2}][/tex]

d. unit of power: [tex]N.m.s^{-1}\equiv [ML^2T^{-3}][/tex]

e. unit of force: [tex][kg.m/s^2]\equiv [MLT^{-2}][/tex]

f. unit of power: [tex]N.m.s^{-1}\equiv [ML^2T^{-3}][/tex]

Force: [tex]F=m.a=m.\frac{v}{t}=m.\frac{x}{t}\div t[/tex]

Power: [tex]P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{F.x}{t}[/tex]

where:

F = force

A = area

W = work

t = time

a = acceleration

v = velocity

x = displacement
