 What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written to give you better understanding of

measurement. Just like any other branches of Science, Physics is based on

different experiments or observation and more of the quantitative measurements.

There are lots of systems of measurements that we are using nowadays. We are

usually transacting between two different systems of measurements and to be able

to do that we need to learn conversion. Conversion among different units is

possible through the use of conversion factor.

At the end of this module you will be able to: Solve measurement problems

involving conversion of units, expression of measurements in scientific notation.

Lesson

1 Measurement

To infinity and beyond! This is one of the famous lines of the iconic
astronaut Buzz Lightyear that we usually express when someone asked us how
much we love them. But what if that someone does not accept that expression and
she/he wants you to give concrete evidence by asking you to provide specific
figures or values? What instrument will you use? How will you compare that
expression to a given numbers? That will not be a problem if you know
measurements. You can express you answer by giving specific number
accompanied by a unit which will be equal to huge value.

8
 What’s In

A prefix is a letter or a group of letters added at the beginning of the base

word to change its meaning. In measurements, a unit prefix or metric prefix can be
used to make a new unit larger or smaller than the base unit.

Refer to the illustration below. You will observe that the value of the prefixes
as it went up the ladder increase and decreases as it went down the ladder. If you
will convert the units all you have to do is to move the decimal point directed to
what is being required and number of spaces shown on the ladder will indicate its
movement.

For example, when you convert milli to deca, you will move the decimal point 4
times going to the left, whereas, 2716. 12 milli will become 0.271612 deca. When
you covert hecto to base unit you will move the decimal point going to the right,
this means that 1.816 hecto will become 1816 base unit.

Another way of converting the unit is by simply multiplying the given to its
corresponding multiplier. Listed below are the examples.

 Notes to the Teacher
This module prepares the learners to understand/master the
different conversion factors and expressing answer in scientific
notation.

What’s New

Measurement may refer to a process of using a device or tool to find the

dimensions, time, pressure, amount, weight or mass of an object or it is based on a
quantitative physical property of an object which is usually express by using a
number accompanied with a unit. Number express in measurement with no
additional unit will be insignificant. A unit refers to a physical quantity that can be
express as standard or nonstandard.

The nonstandard unit of measurements in the Philippines was used by the

native Filipino (sinauna) that is usually based on the human body. Like for example
the dangkal and dipa for the length, and dakot for weight. The use of this
nonstandard unit produces unreliable measurement because it may vary on
different person’s size. So to attain higher accuracy and precision in measuring,
standardized systems of measurements such as the English System and the
International System of Units was introduce. The English or British system
comprises units such as pound (for force), yard (for length), and ounce (for volume).

Meanwhile, the metric system constitutes unit based on the power of 10,
which makes it preferred system to be used in science. In 1960 the metric system
was reorganized by international conference held in France creating the SI
(Syst’eme international d’unite’s) or the International System of Units. These
include the seven metric units which are called base units.

TEAM TLL for the Acronym!

Many problems in physics require the conversion of one unit of

measurement to another. This technique of converting between units is called
dimensional analysis. The starting point of dimensional analysis is unit equality. A
unit equality or conversion factor is an equation that shows the equivalent
amounts of different units. Below are some of the common examples.

Common SI- Equivalent Quantities

Quantity U.S Metric (SI) Metric –U.S

Length 1ft = 12 in. 1 km – 100 m 2. 54 cm = 1 in
1 yard = 3ft 1 m = 1000 mm (exact)
1mile = 5280 ft 1 cm = 10 mm 1 m = 39.37 in
1 km = 0.6214 mi
Volume 1 qt = 4 cups 1L = 1000 ml 1 L = 1.057 qt
1 qt = 2 pints 1dL = 100ml
1 gallon = 4 qts 1ml = 1cm3
Mass 1 lb = 16 oz 1 kg = 1000 g 1 kg = 2.205 lb
1 g = 100 mg 453.6 g = 1 lb
Time 1 hour = 60 min
1 min = 60 s

In most of the cases, several conversion factors are needed to complete a

unit conversion. Here are the examples:

3
1. How many inches are there in 10 meters?

Solution: As you can see from the given table that there is no direct conversion
from inches to meters.

a. Relate inches to meters. You may relate meters to inches by first converting the
metric quantities. Know that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters and 1 meter is
equal to 100 centimeters.

b. From the given quantities, you can list the following conversion factors:

1 𝑖𝑛 2.54 𝑐𝑚 100 𝑐𝑚 1𝑚
𝑜𝑟 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑜𝑟
2.54 𝑐𝑚 1 𝑖𝑛 1𝑚 100 𝑐𝑚

c. Using f as the variable to represent the length of 10 m and the appropriate

conversion factors, the solution for the problem is as follows.

𝒇 = 10𝑚 (100𝑐𝑚|1𝑚) (1𝑖𝑛|2.54 𝑐𝑚) = 393.70 𝑖𝑛

There are 393. 70 inches for every 10 meters.

2. The speed of a car as measured by a speedometer is 62 kilometers per hour

(km/h). Convert this unit to centimetre per second (cm/s)

Use S to represent speed of a car. For this case the unit is express in ratio (km/h)
so we need to convert both numerator and denominator.

1kilometer = 1000 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeter

1 hour = 3600 seconds

For the conversion:

S = 62 km/h (1000m/1km)(100cm/1m)(1h/3600s

S = 1, 722. 22 cm/s or 1.72x103 cm/s

Note: in converting one unit to another you must analyse if they are referring to the
same quantity. Remember that you cannot convert units that do not correspond to
the same quantity.

You will notice in some instance that a unit do not corresponds to the same
quantity. Like for example, force is express in Newton – N which has the equivalent

4
value of kg.m/s2, the speed (m/s), and work or energy express in Joule (N.m or
kg.m2/s2). This is actually referred to a derived quantities or units! Newton or the
unit of force is derived from multiplying the mass of an object in kg and its
acceleration (m/s2).

Now it’s your turn! Solve the following problem.

1. How many yards are there in 1km?
2. How many cups are there in 1 gallon?

What is It

In physics, it is very common to work with very large or very small numbers.
For this reason, scientific notation is being used. Scientific notation is a short way
of expressing huge numbers like 1, 300, 300 or incredibly small numbers like 0.
0000000000000000027. Too big or too small numbers are easily calculated using
scientific notation. An example of scientific notation is 1.27x107 which is just a
different way of expressing the standard notation of the number 12 700 000.
Standard notation is the normal way of writing numbers. The positive exponent
indicates a large number while the negative exponent indicates a small number. In
general, a number written in scientific notation will be multiplied by 10 raised to an
"exponent."

(Figure 1.) 2.345 × 103 and 2.345 × 10−3

By looking at (Figure 1.) showing the exponents 3 and -3 will signify different
value. This will mean that a positive exponent will ask you to multiply by a power of
10. A negative exponent means to divide. Briefly, the exponent indicates the
number of 0's in the power of 10. Therefore, if a number is written in scientific
notation will be express as a standard number; we can state the following rule:

1. If the exponent is positive, move the decimal point right as many places as
indicated by the exponent.

2. If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point left as many places as
indicated by the exponent.

Examples:

1. Each number is written in scientific notation. What standard notation is it?

5
a) 5.42 × 103 = 5,420. Move the decimal point three places right.

b) 5.42 × 10−3 = .00542 Move the decimal point three places left.

2. Write each number in scientific notation.

a) 123.4 = 1.234 × 10²

The scientific notation on the right begins 1.234. To get back to 123.4, we have to
move the point 2 places right. We have to multiply by 10 with exponent positive 2.

Note: A number does not change if we divide it and then multiply the quotient by
the same number, or if we multiply and then divide by the same number.

Example:

1. Express 2.16x109 in standard notation.

In this case the base number will be multiplied by ten in 9 repetitions. After getting
the product, divide the same number by 10 in 9 repetitions, still you will be
arriving at the same base number.

Solution: Base number is 2.16

2.16 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 2 160 000 000

2 160 000 000 / 10 / 10 / 10 / 10/ 10 / 10/ 10 / 10/ 10 = 2.16

2. Express 2.71x10-3 in standard notation.

In this case the base will be divided by 10 in 3 repetitions. After getting the
quotient, multiply this number by 10 in 3 repetitions.

Solution: Base number is 2.71

2.71 /10 /10/ 10 = 0.00271

0.00271 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 2.71
