- 1. UEENEEE003B Solve Problems in Single Path DC Circuits
- 2. The Systeme Internationale’ (SI) is the International Metric System There are 6 Base Units in the SI system 7/6/2011 Revision02 2 Base Units
- 3. The six basic units are not sufficient to act for all situations that arise in measurement. Derived units are used for all non-basic situations. Most derived units use the three basic units of length, mass and time in various combinations. . 7/6/2011 Revision02 3 SI Derived Units
- 4. 7/6/2011 Revision02 4 SI Derived Units The units used can be subdivided into three groups: mechanical, electrical and magnetic although it must be realised there are many more examples than those listed
- 5. 7/6/2011 Revision02 5 Derived Mechanical Units
- 6. 7/6/2011 Revision02 6 Derived Electrical Units
- 7. In practical cases some SI values are inconveniently large or small, In order to choose values that are convenient to handle, multiples or submultiples are used. For example, if the resistance of an electrical installation is measured at 15 000 000 ohms, it is more convenient to refer to this value as 15 megohms. 7/6/2011 Revision02 7 Multiples And Submultiples
- 8. 7/6/2011 8 Multiples and Submultiples
- 10. Another method of overcoming cumbersome rows of figures is to notate numbers to a value between 1 and 10 multiplied by 10 to some power. For example, 6 800 000 can be expressed as 6.8 x 106and 1250 as 1.25 x 103 7/6/2011 Revision02 10 Scientific Notation
