It highlights the challenges of the English measurement system for scientific purposes, leading to the adoption of the metric system in 1795 and the International System of Units (SI) established in 1960. Although the U.S. has legally adopted the metric system, it predominantly uses the imperial system.

We can develop an analytical method for determining the concentration of lead in drinking water using any of the techniques mentioned in the previous section. The requirements of the analysis determine the best method and consideration is given the following criteria: accuracy, precision, sensitivity, selectivity, robustness, ruggedness, scale of operation, analysis time, availability of equipment, and cost.

The Fourier transform is a critical process that represents functions using complex exponentials. It is widely applied in fields like signal processing, where tools such as Matlab's FFT compute discrete Fourier transforms. This analysis helps identify frequency components in noisy signals, offering insights into the underlying structure of complex data.

Questions such as, “How long does a foot race take?” and “What was the runner’s speed?” cannot be answered without an understanding of other concepts. In this section we add definitions of time, velocity, and speed to expand our description of motion.
