Physics Notes: Week 1 Classical Mechanics: Physical Quantities time (seconds), length (meters), mass (kilo) SI Units (international system of units): kilo= 10 or 1,000 centi= 1 0 or 1 100 μ (micro)= 10 or 6 1 1,000,000 Ex. m→m 2.5cm 10⁻² −2 1 × 1cm = 2.5× 10 m or 0.025m Dimensional Analysis: Distance (m)= speed (rate in m × time (s) s → d = v × t
