Physical units in mechanics are usually some combination of the dimensions time T, mass M, and length L. Consider the physical quantities m, r, u, a, and t with dimensions [m] = M, [r] = L, [u] = LT-, [a] = LT-2, and [1] = T. Enter the dimensional expression of the quantity on the right-hand side of each equation. Your answers may contain only M, L, T, and exponents. Assume that each of the following equations is dimensionally consistent. Lo = mur [Lo] = W = mar [W] = T
The SI units of mass density are kg/m3, but there are several other common units. One of the most commonly used units of mass density is gram per cubic centimeter, or g/cc. This is because pure water has a mass density of 1 g/cc. It turns out that 1 mL of liquid is equal to 1 cc of volume. So it is also possible to express the mass density of water as 1 g/mL. This makes water a useful tool since it is possible to use graduated cylinders to measure volumes.An object with a mass of 61.0 g displaces 785.0 ml of water when it is completely immersed. What is the buoyant force on the mass? (Use g = 9.8 N/kg  as necessary.)
You are a team leader at a pharmaceutical company. Several technicians are preparing samples, and you want to compare the densities of the samples (density = mass/volume) by using the mass and volume values they have reported. Unfortunately, you did not specify what units to use. The technicians used a variety of units in reporting their values, as shown in the following table. Sample ID Mass Volume A 8.00 g 1.67 × 10–6 m³ 9.38 x 106um³ 6.00µg 8.00mg 9.00 × 10-4 kg 2.81 × 10³ mm³ 9.00 x 104ng 6.00 x 10-2mg 1.25 × 10 µm³ В C 2.50 x 10¬3 cm³ 3 E 1.41 x 10-2 mm3 3 F List the sample IDs in order of increasing density of the sample.
