Essential Question:

Questions/Main Ideas:

What are the 4 states of

matter?
Is it possible for material
to co-exist
simultaneously in 3
states? If so, what is it
called?
Why do engineers need
to know the properties of
materials, as well as how
properties change with
pressure, temperature,
composition?
Name the 6 fundamental
quantities.
Name 5 examples of
derived (also known as
compound) quantities.
How can you represent
dimensions of a quantity
A?
What is a requirement
for all the additive terms
on both sides of an
equation?
Give two examples of
dimensionless quantities.
True or false? Units are
attached to most
quantities that represent
physical measurements

Notes:

Liquids, gases, solid (multiple) and plasma.

It is possible for material to co-exist simultaneously in 3
states. It is called a triple point.

Engineers need to know all those things to be able to

design or create processes or equipment.

Mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, and

luminous intensity.
Density, velocity, acceleration, force, and pressure.
[A] = [M]a[L]B[t]Y
Dimensions of all additive terms on both sides of an
equation must match.
Exponents (such as the 2 in x2), transcendental functions
(e.g. log, exp, sin, cos, etc.) and arguments of
transcendental functions of dimensionless.
True. Eg. 1 m/s, 20 km/h, 40 kg, 9.81 m/s2.

of the properties of
matter. Give examples.
What are the base units
of length?
What are the base units
of mass?
What are the base units
of time?
What are the base units
of electric current?
What are the base units
of temperature?
What are the base units
of amount of substance?
What are the base units
of luminous intensity?
What is the equation for
density?
What is the equation for
pressure?
What is the equation for
speed?
How do you convert
from degrees Celsius to
Kelvins?
How do you convert
from degrees Celsius to
Fahrenheit?
How do you convert
from Kelvins to
Rankines (another
temperature scale)?
Give three examples of
conservation principles.
What is the rate of
change of momentum
equal to?
What is the mass
conservation equation?
What is the energy

The metre (m).

The kilogram (kg).
The second (s).
The ampere (A).
The Kelvin (K).
The mole (mol).
The candela (cd).
density = mass / volume
pressure = force / area
speed = distance traveled / time
You add 273.15 degrees to your value in degrees to get
the temperature in Kelvins.
You multiply the temperature in degrees Celsius by 1.8
and then add 32.
You multiply the temperature in Kelvins by 1.8.

Conservation of mass, conservation of energy, and

conservation of momentum (product of mass and
velocity).
The rate of change of momentum is equal to the force
acting on an object.
mass in + mass generated = mass out + mass accumulated
final system energy initial system energy = net energy

conservation equation,
balance of energy on a
closed system?
What types of energy
make up system energy
and transferred energy?
Summarize Newtons 3
Laws.

Summary:

transferred to the system

Internal, kinetic, and potential energy. Transferred energy
consists of work and heat.
a) A body at rest or in motion will remain in the
corresponding state until acted on by a force
b) a = F / m, F = ma
c) the net force exerted by the surroundings on a body
is equal to and opposite the force the body exerts
on the surroundings.
