Represent each of the following with SI units having an appropriate prefix: (a) 8653 ms, (b) 8368 N, (c) 0.893 kg.
Statics of Rigid Bodies 14th Edition by RC Hibbeler, Problem 1-11
Solution:
Part A
\begin{align*} 8653 \ \text{ms} & = 8653 \ \left( 10^{-3} \right) \ \text{s} \\ & =8.653 \ \text{s} \end{align*}
Part B
\begin{align*} 8368 \ \text{N} & = 8.368\times 10^3 \ \text{N}\\ & = 8.368 \ \text{kN}\\ \end{align*}
Part C
\begin{align*} 0.893 \ \text{kg} & = 0.893\times 10^3 \ \text{g} \\ & =893 \ \text{g} \end{align*}
