Lesson Plan: Quantities and Units in Mechanics Mathematics
This lesson plan includes the objectives of the lesson teaching students how to identify fundamental and derived quantities used in mechanics, such as length, time, and velocity, and identify their units and unit conversions.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- find the units for a derived quantity in mechanics using the equation linking this quantity with fundamental quantities,
- convert between units and their multiples or subunits in the international system (SI),
- convert between standard and nonstandard units.
