The rest of humanity defines stress as physics. " Complete overview: derived units, unit conversions, dimensional analysis, trig review, vectors and scalars, multiplying vectors by a scalar, unit vectors, components of vectors, adding vectors. Announcements: exam 1 is only three days away, normal si session times have been pushed back half an hour for tuesday and. By the end of this course, students should be able to: 1. 1 convert units between metric and english unit systems and within the metric system. 1. 2 use the base units in the si system to create the appropriate derived units for a physical quantity. 1. 3 estimate quantities using dimensional analysis and approximation methods. 1. 4 describe physical quantities that can be represented using vectors.
