MCAT Physics and Math 10.4: Problem-Solving

  • Direct relationships

    In direct relationships, increasing one variable proportionately increases the other; as one decreases, the other decreases by the same proportion.

  • Dimensional analysis

    Dimensional analysis is the analysis of the relationships between different physical quantities by identifying their base quantities (such as length, mass, time, and electric current) and units of measure (such as miles vs. kilometres, or pounds vs. kilograms) and tracking these dimensions as calculations or comparisons are performed.

    as many equations as there are variables

  • When there are multiple variables, we can solve for the variables using one of three methods: _____, _____, or _____.

    -substituting one variable in terms of the other (substitution)

    -setting equations equal to each other

    -manipulating the equations to eliminate one of the variables (elimination)
