d. 20 m/s2 = ………….km/h2

3

Check: homogenous or not

a. �� = ��

�+ 2���

b. � = �. ��/2�

c. � = ��. � +�

��. ��

d. � = ��� + ��ℎ

4

Find unknown unit:

a. � = ℎ. � find SI unit of h

b. � = �. ��. ��/�� find SI unit of G

c. � =�

��. �� find SI unit of k

d. � = 2��

� find SI unit of k

5

6)400.00 x 25 =

Find the result along with its uncertainty

1) (50.0 0.2) cm + (20 1) cm

2) (50.0 0.2) cm – (20 1) cm

3) (50.0 0.2) cm : (20 1) cm

4) (50.0 0.2) cm x (20 1) cm

Suppose your hair grows at the rate of 1/32 inch per day. Find the rate at which it grows in nanometers per second.

Since the distance between atoms in a molecule is on the order of 0.1 nm, your answer suggests how rapidly atoms are assembled in this protein synthesis.

A billionaire offers to give you $1 billion if you can count out that sum with only $1 bills. Should you accept her offer?

Assume that you can count at an average rate of one bill every second, and be sure to allow for the fact that you need about 8 hours a day for sleeping and eating.
