Detailed explanation-1: -Dimensional analysis (also called factor label method or unit analysis) is used to convert from one set of units to another. This method is used for both simple (feet to inches) and complex (g/cm3 to kg/gallon) conversions and uses relationships or conversion factors between different sets of units.
Detailed explanation-2: -dimensional analysis, technique used in the physical sciences and engineering to reduce physical properties, such as acceleration, viscosity, energy, and others, to their fundamental dimensions of length (L), mass (M), and time (T).
Detailed explanation-3: -Many of these conversion we can do in our heads but sometimes the problems are little more difficult-a technique becomes necessary. This technique of converting from one unit to another is often called diminesional alysis.
