Course: Energy and Power (20101-36) > Section: Introducing Energy

Converting should include

- the use of unit conversion charts
- the use of formulas (e.g., Watt’s law, Ohm’s law, ideal gas law)
- metric and standard measurement systems
- scientific notation (e.g., kilo-, mega-, giga-, micro-).

Process/Skill Questions:

- Why is it important to know the difference between metric and standard measurement systems? What are the consequences of not understanding the difference?
- How is scientific notation used in converting units of measure?
