Why the metric system matters?
For the majority of recorded human history, units like the weight of a grain or the length of a hand weren’t exact and varied from place to place. Now, consistent measurements are such an integral part of our daily lives that it’s hard to appreciate what a major accomplishment for humanity they’ve been.

01-크기의 과학

1 크기의 과학

We can understand certain phenomena without actually doing the detailed calculations needed for a complete solution. Galileo Galilei first pointed out that similar objects can be related by scaling laws. These laws explain why an elephant cannot look like an enlarged mouse, why a giant human necessarily has certain problems, and why there are ultimate limits to the sizes of animals, plants and structures. This simple idea is called dimensional analysis, one of the physicist’s favorite trick. In this chapter, we will explore its stories and principles behind it.
