• Dimensions- property that can be measured

• Basic concepts of measurements are mass, length, time


and temperature.
• The other dimensions are obtained from multiplying or
dividing the above basic dimension. e.g. velocity
(length/time) etc.

• Units

• Means of expressing the dimensions in three


components:
• base, multiple and derived

Dimensional Homogeneity and
Dimensionless Quantity
 A measured quantity can be expressed in
terms of any units having the appropriate
dimension
 To convert a quantity expressed in terms of
one unit to equivalent in terms of another
unit, multiply the given quantity by the
conversion factor
 Conversion factor – a ratio of equivalent
values of a quantity expressed in different
units
 Let say to convert 36 mg to gram
Conversion
factor
36 mg 1g = 0.036 g
1000 mg

Conversion factor
Example
 Convert 4 kg/m3 to lbm /ft3

1.57 x 10-2 g 1 lbm 100 cm 1 m 1.055 x 10-5 lbm

(cm) (s) 453.393 g 1m 3,2806 ft cm.s


Dimensional Equation
To converta quantity with a unit to its
equivalent in term of other units, set up a
dimensional equation:

◦ Write the given quantity and units on left


◦ Write the units of conversion factors that
cancel the old unit and replace them with
the desired unit
◦ Fill the value of the conversion factors
◦ Carry out the arithmetic value
Example: convert 5 m to cm
Convert 1 cm/s2 to km/yr2
Try this..
 100,000 inchies to mile

 Convert 50 km/h in m/s


50 km 1000 m 1h 13.888 m
h 1 km 3600 s s

 4.5 kg to Lbs

 100 km to mi
 A truck owner will refuel his vehicle at rate of 2 gallon of
diesel fuel every 5 seconds. If diesel fuel costs RM 2.00 per
gallon, how long it will take for the truck owner to refuel his
vehicle with RM 100 of diesel fuel?

Solution: Calculation :
RM 2.00 = RM 100
Information given: gallon x gallon
2.00 x = 100
rate = 2 gallon
5 sec x = 50

2 gallon = 50 gallon
cost = RM 2.00 / gallon
5 sec γ sec
γ = 125 sec
= 2 min 5 sec

2.4 Force And Weight
 Force is proportional to product of mass and acceleration
 Usually defined using derived units ;
1 Newton (N) = 1 kg.m/s2
1 dyne = 1 g.cm/s2
1 Ibf = 32.174 Ibm.ft/s2
 Weight of an object is force exerted on the object by
gravitational attraction of the earth i.e. force of gravity, g.
where value of gravitational acceleration:
g = 9.8066 m/s2 = 980.66 cm/s2 = 32.174 ft/s2
 gc is used to denote the conversion factor from a natural force unit
to a derived force unit.

gc = 1 kg.m/s2 = 32.174 lbm.ft/s2


1N 1 lbf
Example

• What is the force of 2 kg . m /s2 in newtons (N)

2 kg . m 1N s2 2N

s2 1 kg .m

Weight (W) = Mass (m) x Gravity (g)


• An object weight
W= mg
2 lbf at sea level. What is its
mass?

2 lbf 32.174 lbm . ft 1 lbf s2 2 lbm

s2 32.174 ft

Numerical Calculation and Estimation
Scientific Notation
A convenient way to represent very large and
very small numbers (often encountered in
process calculation) is to use scientific notation,
in which a number is expressed as the product of
another number (usually between 0.1 and 10)
and a power of 10.

Example:
123,000,000 = 1.23 x 108 (or 0.123 x 109)
0.000028 = 2.8 x 10-5 (or 0.28 x 10-4)
Significant Figures
 The significant figures of a number are the digits from
the first nonzero digit on the left to either (a) the last digit
(zero or nonzero) on the right if there is a decimal point, or
(b) the last nonzero digit of the number if there is no
decimal point.

 Note: The number of significant figures is easily shown and seen if


scientific notation is used.
To validate a quantitative problem solution are
 Back-substitution: After you solve a set of equations,
substitute your solution back into the equations and make
sure it works.
 Order-of-magnitude estimation: Come up with a crude
and easy-to-obtain approximation of the answer to a
problem and making sure that the more exact solution
comes reasonably close to it.
 The test of reasonableness: Verifying the solution
makes sense, example you should be concerned if you
calculate a reactor volume larger than earth (1021 m3).

Dimensional Homogeneity
• The dimensions on both sides of the “equals” sign in an
equation must be the same.

• Consequently, the units of each term in the equation must


be the same (via conversion) as the units of other terms it
is added to or subtracted from.

• It is also good practice to identify an invalid equation


based on dimensional arguments.
