However‚ this course is impossible to undertake for students unless the students know how to deal with the units and other basic values are calculated in. Therefore in the first chapter of Engineering Mechanics One‚ the students are taught the Conversions of Units. Units are the basics calculation. A system of forces cannot be interpreted unless there is homogeneity of units. A very simple example can be used to explain this concept. Imagine a force of twenty kips and twenty Newton acting on the
