In this problem, we'll be talking about measurements in physics, more specifically dimensions versus units, differing between the two and how they relate.
00:09
So a dimension is the thing that is being measured.
00:15
So examples of dimensions include length, because length can be measured, time, or speed.
00:26
There are many more, but these are just three examples that i'm going to talk about.
00:31
Units are what describe those dimensions or label those measurements and units can vary for different dimensions.
00:43
So the unit for length, the si unit for length, is meters.
00:47
But it can also be written in feet or miles.
00:56
So there are many options for the units of the dimensions, but these are some examples...
