Check Your Understanding Is the equation v=atdimensionally consistent? One further point thin needs to be mentioned is the effect of the operations of calculus on dimensions. We have seen that dimensions obey the rules of algebra, just like units, but what happens when we take the derivative of one physical quantity with respect to another or integrate a physical quantity over another? The derivative of a function is just the slope of the line tangent to its graph and slopes are ratios, so for physical quantities vand t , we hive that the dimension of the derivative of vwith respect to us just the ratio of the dimension of v over that of t : [dvdt]=[vt] . Similarly, since integrals are just sums of products, the dimension of the integral of vwith respect to t is simply the dimension of vtimes the dimension of t : [vdt]=[v][t] . By the same reasoning, analogous rules hold for the units of physical quantities derived from other quantities by integration or differentiation.

Check Your Understanding Figure 1.4 says the mass of the atmosphere is 1019kg . Assuming the density of the atmosphere is 1kg/m3 , estimate the height of Earth’s atmosphere. Do you think your answer is an underestimate or an overestimate? Explain why. How many piano tuners are there in New York City? How many leaves are on that tree? If you are studying photosynthesis or thinking of writing a smartphone app tot piano tuners, then the answers to these questions might be of great interest to you. Otherwise, you probably couldn’t care less what the answers are. However, these are exactly the soils of estimation problems that people in various tech industries have been asking potential employees to evaluate their quantitative reasoning skills. If building physical intuition and evaluating quantitative claims do not seem like sufficient reasons tot you to practice estimation problems, how about the fact that being good at them just might land you a high-paying job?
