Atomic clocks are based on electromagnetic waves which atoms
emit. Also, pulsars are highly regular astronomical clocks.Q1.2
Density varies with temperature and pressure. It would be
necessary to measure both mass and volume very accurately in
order to use the density of water as a standard.
People have different size hands. Defining the unit precisely
would be cumbersome.

A dimensionally correct equation need not be true. Example:
1 chimpanzee = 2 chimpanzee is dimensionally correct. If an
equation is not dimensionally correct, it cannot be correct.
Q1.7
If I were a runner, I might walk or run 10 1 miles per day. Since I am a college professor, I walk about
10 0 miles per day.I drive about 40 miles per day on workdays and up to 200 miles per day on
vacation.

Zero digits. An order-of-magnitude calculation is accurate only within a factor of10.
Q1.10
The mass of the forty-six chapter textbook is on the order of 10 0 kg .

Matter and Model-Building
Fromthe figure, we may see that the spacing between diagonal planes is half the distance between
diagonally adjacent atoms on a flat plane. This diagonal distance may be obtained from the
Pythagorean theorem, Ldiag = L2 + L2 . Thus, since the atoms are separated by a distance
L = 0.200 nm , the diagonal planes are separated by

L + L2 = 0.141 nm .

= 5.52 × 10 3 kg m3 . This value is intermediate between the
V 1.08 × 10 21 m 3
tabulated densities of aluminum and iron. Typical rocks have densities around 2 000 to
3 000 kg m3 . The average density of the Earth issignificantly higher, so higher-density material
must be down below the surface.
