Effective Equation Use and Units

Equations and Units Matter

Always start by writing down relevant formulas and check that all values are in compatible units. Plug in numbers only after rearranging the formula to solve for the desired variable. Keep an eye on units to avoid calculation errors!

Examples

  • Converting grams to kilograms before using density equations.

  • Rearranging Bernoulli’s equation before plugging in numbers for velocity or pressure.
