LABORATORY EXPERIMENT 1

MEASUREMENT AND QUANTITES

PART I- MEASURING MY HEIGHT

Measure your height using meter stick (or any available measuring tool) with metric distances on
one side and U.S. customary distances, such as inches, on the other side. Record your height to the nearest
centimetre and to the nearest inch. (Pictures for documentation are a must). Divide your height in
centimetre by the height in inches. What can you say about the results?

PART II- SCALAR AND VECTOR

Think of situation in real life where Scalars and Vectors are applied. (Pictures for documentation
are a must). Discuss how scalar quantities and vector quantities are incorporated. It should be two for
scalar and three for vectors. Identify the components for the situations involving vectors.

PART III- CRITICAL THINKING

You are working at a radar station for the Coast Guard. While everyone else is out to lunch, you
hear a distress call from a sinking ship. The ship is located at a distance of 51.2 km from the station, at
bearing of 36 degrees north of west. On your radar screen, you see the locations of four other ships as
follows:

SHIP # DISTANCE FROM BEARING MAXIMUM SPEED

STATION (km) (km/h)
1 36.1 42° N of W 30.0
2 37.3 61° N of W 38.0
3 10.2 36° N of W 32.0
4 51.2 79° N of W 45.0

Which ship do you contact to help the sinking ship? Which ship will get there in the shortest time
interval? Assume that each ship would accelerate quickly to its maximum speed and then maintain that
constant speed in a straight line for the entire trip to the sinking ship
