AI Thread Summary
A request for a chart or list detailing quantities and their dimensions using the MLtT and FLtT systems, along with typical SI and English units, was made. The response indicates that this information is typically found in standard undergraduate physics textbooks. Additionally, it suggests checking rulers, meter scales, and diaries, as many printed in India include such conversions. The discussion emphasizes the availability of this information in common educational resources. Overall, users are encouraged to explore standard materials for the needed dimensional data.

Sorry if its here somewhere but I couldn't find it, where can I find a chart/list for quantities listing their dimensions using the MLtT and FLtT systems and also give the typical SI and English units?

Thanks

Its given in all atandard Physics books of undergrad level. I don't know if its somewhere in the site, but I want you to have a close look on you ruler, metre scale, books, etc. Another thing to search for this is your diary. Most of them (printed in India atleast) contain such conversions.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

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'

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...
