    LAB 2 Conversion Factors Prelab Assignment

    1. Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of the SI, imperial, and
    apothecary system of units. Provide examples of at least one advantage and one
    disadvantage between the systems.

    1. SI unit- One advantage in SI unit is that it uses one unit for each quantity given. (Your type of
    measurement). Then, it is not necessary for you to convert from one to unit to another just within
    the system. Students don’t have to memorize conversion factors. For example, the one and only SI
    unit of length is the meter (m). Numerical prefixes may be attached, but they do not form a separate
    unit.
    2. Imperial unit- No certain advantages to the imperial unit. The changes are arithmetic only. The
    metric system being standardised in orders of magnitude makes it significantly easier to remember.
    (e.g. Imperial is traditional and ad hoc (I believe a length of one inch is equal to the length of three
    barleycorns) which is ironic cause some of it doesn’t make sense at all.

    3. Metric unit- metric units is used widely around the Calculations of metric measurements are easy to
    perform and price/weight comparisons easier to understand. As multiples of units have a standard
    prefix, it is easy to see how much a unit is of another unit, such as when you see the kilo- prefix, it
    means one thousand of something, (e.g. 1 kilogram is 1000 grams)
    4.

    2. Explain the importance of using like units in dimensional analysis (e.g., kg to mg


    rather than kg to mm). Include a unique example.

    Even when in our practical daily lives we use different units. For example when
    we try a new recipe at home we have to convert ounces, quarts to cups, tsp to
    Tbsp. Units is every essential to our daily living. It is a very useful and important
    . skill. We use this everyday unconsciously. We even compare our vital statistics
    with our friends and joke about it.

    We are using conversions without realizing we are. It is very significant


    esp. in the field of Sciences and Math. We convert large quantities to small
    quantities. We convert numbers with a dimensional unit to a different unit e.g.
    miles to kilometers. Dimensional analysis is also known as a unit-factor
    label/method, meaning, to convert one different type of unit to another unit.

    (e.g. If I want to know how many yards are there in 10 feet, we can recall that 3
    feet is equivalent to 1 yard. Then, I can use dimensional analysis and convert feet
    into yards by using the conversion factor.)
