Use the SI units, instruments, precision, and measurement sections.

Know what success looks like.

  1. 01

    Match each measured quantity to a suitable SI unit and instrument.

  2. 02

    Read scales and recorded data with appropriate precision.

  3. 03

    Use units and dimensions to test whether a result is physically consistent.

Build, apply, check.

1.1 Physical quantities and measurement techniques sits inside Motion, forces and energy. Build the concept first, then practise selecting a model, showing working, and checking the final result.
