hp prime calculations with units
Hi, there's some way to solve this calculus with units solved? Newton in this case? thanks.
(10_(kg)*2_(m)) / 1_(s^2).

On the ti-nspire (and numworks do the same) i've 20 _N. With hp prime the result is 20 (kg*m)/s^2.

Dear Giubin,
You must use the "CONVERT" command to get the correct unit. Go to [Shift], [Units], where you will find a soft menu key called "Tools". Click on that, and you need the top command: "CONVERT". Use it like this: CONVERT(20 (kg*m)/s^2; 1_N), and it will give you the right answer: 20_N. Sincerely, Karel.

I use HP-16C, WP-34S emulator, HP-35s, HP-48GX, HP-50g, and HP Prime G2.

Hi Giubin,
another way is to use USIMPLIFY() which simplyfies the given unit in fact you don't know what unit that is.

Best regards
Frank

Thanks, USIMPLIFY() is nice, but is strange that ti-nspire "solve" units automatically. That is a nice "simplify" Big Grin

Thanks, Giuseppe.

Thanks, as suggested, maybe USIMPLIFY() is the answer for my "problem"! Sorry btw, i'm new with hp prime.

Many thanks, Giuseppe.
