Physics and Mechanics❑ Physics deals with the nature and properties of matter
and energy. Common language is mathematics. Physics is based on experimental observations and quantitative measurements.
❑ The study of physics can be divided into six main areas:◼ Classical mechanics – Physics I (Phys. 101)
◼ Electromagnetism – Physics II (Phys. 102)
◼ Optics –
◼ Relativity –
◼ Thermodynamics –Physics II (Phys. 102
◼ Quantum mechanics –
◼ Classical mechanics deals with the motion and equilibrium of material bodies and the action of forces.

Classical Mechanics❑ Classical mechanics deals with the motion of objects❑ Classical Mechanics: Theory that predicts qualitatively &
quantitatively the results of experiments for objects that are NOT◼ Too small: atoms and subatomic particles – Quantum
Mechanics◼ Too fast: objects close to the speed of light – Special Relativity◼ Too dense: black holes, the early Universe – General Relativity
❑ Classical mechanics concerns the motion of objects that are large relative to atoms and move at speeds much slower than the speed of light (i.e. nearly everything!)

Chapter 1 Measurement
❑ To be quantitative in Physics requires measurements
❑ How tall is Ming Yao? How about
his weight?
◼ Height: 2.29 m (7 ft 6 in)
◼ Weight: 141 kg (310 lb)
❑ Number + Unit
◼ “thickness is 10.” has no physical meaning
◼ Both numbers and units necessary for
any meaningful physical quantities

Type Quantities
❑ Many things can be measured: distance, speed, energy, time, force ……
❑ These are related to one another: speed = distance / time
❑ Choose three basic quantities (DIMENSIONS):
◼ LENGTH
◼ MASS
◼ TIME
❑ Define other units in terms of these.

Why should we care about units?
❑ Mars Climate Orbiter:http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msp98/orbiter
❑ SEPTEMBER 23, 1999: Mars Climate Orbiter Believed To Be Lost
❑ SEPTEMBER 24, 1999: Search For Orbiter Abandoned
❑ SEPTEMBER 30, 1999:Likely Cause Of Orbiter Loss FoundThe peer review preliminary findings indicate that one team used English units (e.g., inches, feet and pounds) while the other used metric units for a key spacecraft operation.

The Quick 6: Six Unit Conversion Disasters
❑Think you had a bad day at work?
❑Forgetting to convert units can result in big-time disasters like these six examples.
1. Can you imagine losing $125 million thanks to a little metric system error? That’s exactly what happened in
1999 when NASA lost a Mars orbiter because one team
used metric units for a calculation and the other
team didn’t.
2. In 1983, an Air Canada plane ran out of fuel in the middle of a flight. The cause? Not one but two mistakes in figuring how
much fuel was needed. It was Air Canada’s first plane to use metric measurements
and clearly not everyone had the hang of it yet. Luckily, no one was killed and only
two people received minor injuries. That’s amazing considering the flight crew
thought they had double the fuel they actually had.

❑ French Revolution Definition, 1792
❑ 1 Meter = XY/10,000,000
❑ 1 Meter = about 3.28 ft
❑ 1 km = 1000 m, 1 cm = 1/100 m, 1 mm = 1/1000 m

SI Time Unit: Second
❑ 1 Second is defined in terms of an “atomic clock”– time taken for 9,192,631,770 oscillations of the light emitted by a 133Cs atom.
❑ Defining units precisely is a science (important, for example, for GPS):◼ This clock will neither gain nor lose a second in 20 million years.

Other Unit System
❑ U.S. customary system: foot, slug, second
❑ Cgs system: cm, gram, second
❑ We will use SI units in this course, but it is useful to know conversions between systems.
◼ 1 mile = 1609 m = 1.609 km 1 ft = 0.3048 m = 30.48 cm
◼ 1 m = 39.37 in. = 3.281 ft 1 in. = 0.0254 m = 2.54 cm
◼ 1 lb = 0.465 kg 1 oz = 28.35 g 1 slug = 14.59 kg
◼ 1 day = 24 hours = 24 * 60 minutes = 24 * 60 * 60 seconds
◼ More can be found in Appendices A & D in your textbook.

Unit Conversion❑ Example: Is he speeding ?
◼ On the garden state parkway of New Jersey, a car is traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s. Is the driver exceeding the speed limit of 75mi/h?
◼ Since the speed limit is in miles/hour (mph), we need to convert the units of m/s to mph. Take it in two steps.
◼ Step 1: Convert m to miles. Since 1 mile = 1609 m, we have two possible conversion factors, 1 mile/1609 m = 6.215x10-4 mile/m, or 1609 m/1 mile = 1609 m/mile. What are the units of these conversion factors?
◼ Since we want to convert m to mile, we want the m units to cancel => multiply by first factor:
◼ Step 2: Convert s to hours. Since 1 hr = 3600 s, again we could have 1 hr/3600 s = 2.778x10-4 hr/s, or 3600 s/hr.
◼ Since we want to convert s to hr, we want the s units to cancel =>

Usain Bolt set a new world record of 9.58 seconds in the men's 100m at the 2009 World Championships in Berlin, a speed of 23.3 mph (10.416 m/s).
Mark Webber had the highest average speed of 119.61 mph in his Red Bull at F1's Hungarian Grand Prix in July.
Mallard, a Class A4 steam locomotive, set the steam locomotion land speed record - 125.88 mph - on 3 July 1938.
Fred Marriott has held the current land speed record for steam-powered vehicles since 1906, when he reached 127.659 mph in his Stanley car.
The British Steam Car team say their car has reached 137.14 mph in testing, but this is an unofficial figure. They hope to reach up to 170 mph in their record
attempt (indicated by yellow bar).British-built Thrust SSC set the world land speed record in October 1997,
reaching 763.035 mph in a desert in the US state of Nevada.The speed of sound changes according to factors including temperature and
altitude, but a standard figure given is roughly 768 mph.

6 Animals Faster Than Usain Bolt
It’s well known that Jamaican sprinter and 100m world record holder, Usain
Bolt, is the fastest human on Earth. But how does he compare to his speedy animal counterparts? Bolt’s world
record of 9.58 seconds for the 100m race in Berlin 2009 places him at a top
speed of 30 mph with an average speed of 23.5 mph. However, these six
animals listed from slowest to fastest, leave him in the dust, reaching double
and even triple the top speeds that Bolt would only dream of ever achieving.
When it comes to speed efficiency, Bolt could learn a thing or two from his
furry friends.
1. North African Ostrich40 mph
2. Greyhound43 mph
3. Thoroughbred Racehorse55mph
4. Pronghorn Antelope55 mph

5. Cheetah61 mph
On June 20, 2012 she ran 100m in 5.95 seconds with a top speed of 61 mph. That’s
nearly 4 seconds faster than Bolt’s 100m world record and more than double his top speed.
6. Peregrine Falcon161 mph
Faster than a sports car, this small predator can reach up to a top
speed of 161 mph. That’s five times faster than Bolt’s top speed.

Dimensional Analysis❑ Necessary either to derive a math expression, or equation
or to check its correctness.
❑ Quantities can be added/subtracted only if they have the same dimensions.
❑ The terms of both sides of an equation must have the same dimensions.
◼ a, b, and c have units of meters, s = a, what is [s] ?
◼ a, b, and c have units of meters, s = a + b, what is [s] ?
◼ a, b, and c have units of meters, s = (2a + b)b, what is [s] ?
◼ a, b, and c have units of meters, s = (a + b)3/c, what is [s] ?
◼ a, b, and c have units of meters, s = (3a + 4b)1/2/9c2, what is [s] ?

Summary❑ The three fundamental physical dimensions of
mechanics are length, mass and time, which in the SI system have the units meter (m), kilogram (kg), and second (s), respectively
❑ The method of dimensional analysis is very powerful in solving physics problems.
❑ Units in physics equations must always be consistent. Converting units is a matter of multiplying the given quantity by a fraction, with one unit in the numerator and its equivalent in the other units in the denominator, arranged so the unwanted units in the given quantity are cancelled out in favor of the desired units.
