Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: Interpret the graph of centimeter to inches in which the y-axis is centimeters and x-axis is inches.
Concept Introduction: The dimensional analysis is the method to convert one unit to another with the help of convertor factor.
The conversion factor represents the relation between two units and is used to convert one to another.
Both Inch and centimeter are units of length and can be converted into each other.
(a)

Answer to Problem 6E
Explanation of Solution
From the given ruler the conversion factor between inch and cm is:
1 inch = 2.54 cm
Thus the plot between inch and cm can be drawn as:
Inch | Cm |
1 | 2.5 |
2 | 5.0 |
3 | 7.5 |
4 | 10.0 |
5 | 12.5 |
(b)
Interpretation: Interpret the conversion of 12 inch to centimeter.
Concept Introduction: The dimensional analysis is the method to convert one unit to another with the help of convertor factor.
The conversion factor represents the relation between two units and is used to convert one to another.
Both Inch and centimeter are units of length and can be converted into each other.
(b)

Answer to Problem 6E
12 in = 30 cm
Explanation of Solution
From the given ruler the conversion factor between inch and cm is:
1 inch = 2.5 cm
Substitute the value:
(c)
Interpretation: Interpret the conversion of 10 cm to in.
Concept Introduction: The dimensional analysis is the method to convert one unit to another with the help of convertor factor.
The conversion factor represents the relation between two units and is used to convert one to another.
Both Inch and centimeter are units of length and can be converted into each other.
(c)

Answer to Problem 6E
10 cm = 4 in
Explanation of Solution
From the given ruler, the conversion factor between inch and cm is:
1 inch = 2.54 cm
Substitute the value:
(d)
