Example of calculating mass in U.S. system: The mass, m, of a particle which weighs W=10 lb and is in a gravitational field of with an acceleration of gravity g=32.2 ft/sec2 is

m=
Unit conversion:

W 10 = = 0.311slug g 32.2

l lb = 4.4482 N 1 slug = 14.5938 kg 1 ft = 0.3048 m 1 ft = 12 in 1 mile = 5,280 ft 1 kip = 1,000 lb 1 ton = 2,000 lb

Scalar and Vector Quantities


Definitions:
Scalar: any (+ or -) physical quantity that has ability to be totally
specified by its magnitude (length, mass, time).

Vector: The quantity here required both a magnitude and a direction for
complete description (forces, displacements, acceleration, torques). magnitude A Direction
