Dimensional Analysis and problem solving

Dimensional Analysis is often used in problem solving. This is something you do every day!

I get paid $10 per hour for baby sitting, how much will I get paid for 3 hours?

Or, I get paid $10 per hour for baby sitting, I made $50, how many hours did I baby sit?

Yes, you can figure these out in your head, but they are dimensional analysis problems..

Early Microscopes -Anton Van Leeuwenhoek • The father of microscopy, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek of

Holland (1632-1723).

• Microscope had a power of 20x or 30x.

Robert Hooke

• In 1665, the English physicist Robert Hooke looked at a sliver of cork through a microscope lens and noticed some "pores" or "cells" in it.

• Hooke was the first person to use the word "cell" to identify microscopic structures when he was describing cork.
