MATHS MODEL /TLM / PROJET ON MEASUREMENT

Hello students, with this project you can convert one unit of measurement to other
for more clearification we can write this rule on the both side of board that
'as we move up we have to divide and when we move down we have to multiply accordingly'

Units
Mensuration is an ancient concept. Every physical quantity like length, mass, time, temperature etc, have a specific unit. By definition, a unit is a magnitude of a physical quantity.
There are two systems of units:

SI units (International System of Units)
Metric system
For example, SI unit of length is a metre (m), while metric units are kilometer (km), meter (m), decimeter (dm), centimeter (cm) and millimeter (mm).
SI unit of mass is Kilograms (kg).
In order to have accuracy and avoid confusion in measurement, we need to convert one unit to another. For instance, we do not measure the length of a pencil in kilometers, in such case one have to convert kilometer (km) to centimeter (cm). Generally, conversion of one unit to another unit of same quantity is performed using multiplicative conversionfactors. Let’s see how to convert a different unit of length and mass.
UNIT CONVERSION:
The use of unit depends on the situation, such as area of a room is expressed in meters but the length of a pencil is expressed in centimeters and its thickness in mm.
Thus we need to convert one unit to another. Before conversion of units we need to understand the relation between units:
Table for Length Conversion:
The table for conversion of length is

The table for length conversion is given in the figure above. The relation between the adjacent unit varies by the multiple of 10 (moving left to right) and vice-versa (i.e. moving right to left).
In a similar manner we have mass conversion table which is as follows:

Example: Convert 2 mm to dam.
Solution: Given 2mm length.
From the length conversion table we see dam is 4th position left to mm.
Thus dividing the given length by 104.
⇒2mm=2104dam
⇒2mm=0.0002dam
Let’s have a look at some of the basic unit conversion of mass and length.
Units of Length
Units of Mass
1 km = 10 hm
= 100 dam
= 1000 m
1 kg = 10 hg
= 100 dag
= 1000 g
1m = 10 dm
= 100 cm
= 1000 mm
1 g = 10 gd
= 100 cm
= 1000 mg
1 dm = 10 cm
= 100 mm
1 dg = 10 cg
= 100 mg
1 cm = 10 mm
1 cg = 10 mg
From the table above we have seen values of units of length are not same i.e. 1 km ≠ 1m. When 1 km is equal to 1000 m we mean we need 1000 meters to make up one kilometer. This makes kilometer a bigger unit than a meter. This is same for 1 Kg = 1000g. Conversion of units can be done in few steps.
Points to remember:
To convert bigger units to a smaller unit multiply.
To convert a smaller unit to a bigger unit divide.
Example: Convert 2 cm to km.
Step 1: Draw a line or box as shown below,
km
hm
dam
m
dm
cm
mm
Step 2: Put 1 at the larger unit to be converted.
Here we want to convert cm to km,
As km is the larger unit, thus put 1 under the corresponding column (km).
km
hm
dam
m
dm
cm
mm
1
Step 3: Now put 0 still the unit we want to convert to.
Here we want to convert cm to km, put 0 still the corresponding smaller unit.
km
hm
dam
m
dm
cm
mm
1 0 0 0 0 0
We see the conversion is from smaller to larger unit, thus we need to divide the given length by 100000 (ie105).
2cm=2105km
⇒2cm=0.00002km
Example: Convert 5 grams to milligrams.
Solution: We have to convert 5 grams to milligrams.
We know 1 g = 1000mg
Thus 5 g = 5 × 1000 = 5000 mg
Today, some of the systems of units in use include the metric system, the imperial system, and the United States customary units.
