Goal: Use dimensional analysis to solve conversion problems. 1. Observe: In the question, you are asked to convert kilometers to centimeters. To do this, first you will convert kilometers to meters. Drag the 1000 meters/1 kilometer tile down. A. What do you notice? B. Because kilometers appear in the numerator of one term and in the denominator of another, they cancel, or disappear. The process of converting units by canceling is called dimensional analysis. How many meters are in 0.828 kilometers? C. A meter is a much shorter unit of measurement than a kilometer. Based on this fact, does your answer to B make sense?
