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
Thanks
MLtT Dimensions is a chart or list that displays the commonly used quantities and units, along with their corresponding symbols and dimensions. It is a helpful tool for scientists and engineers to easily convert between different units and ensure accuracy in their calculations.
The chart is organized into three columns: Quantity, Symbol, and Dimension. The Quantity column lists the name of the physical quantity, such as length or mass. The Symbol column displays the commonly used symbol for that quantity, such as "L" for length or "m" for mass. The Dimension column shows the corresponding dimension, such as "L" for length or "M" for mass.
Dimensions are important in scientific measurements because they provide a standardized and consistent way to describe physical quantities. By using dimensions, scientists can ensure that their calculations are accurate and can be easily compared with other measurements.
No, the chart includes the most commonly used units for each physical quantity. There may be other units that are not included in the chart, but they can be easily converted using the dimensions provided.
The MLtT Dimensions chart can be a helpful reference tool for converting between different units and ensuring the accuracy of your measurements. It can also be used to check the consistency and validity of your calculations. However, it is important to always double check your conversions and make sure they are appropriate for your specific experiment or research.
