AI Thread Summary
A user is seeking a comprehensive conversion table to easily convert various units, such as centimeters to terameters. They specifically mention needing conversions for time, length, area, volume, and weight. A suggestion is made to refer to a specific metric prefix definition resource for additional clarity. Another user recommends the "Pocket Ref" by Glover as an invaluable tool for unit conversions, available at hardware stores. This discussion highlights the need for accessible and detailed unit conversion resources.

I need a table that i can easily find the ways to convert any unit to any other unit i want for example i have 589348cm and i want to change it to Tm i need a table that will easily show me the conversion factor
 
Physics news on Phys.org
thank you...
 
I actually need a very complete conversion table for example time length area volume weight and for example 1cm= 10-2 m a0-5 km 0.394in 3.28X10-2 ft 6.21 x 10-6 mi
 
get the Pocket Ref, by Glover, published by Sequoia Publishing at most hardware stores. Invaluble tool
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
