When one metre, one kg and one minute are taken as fundamental units, the magnitude of a force is 36 units. What is the value of this force on CGS system? |

Answer» `10^(3)` dyne The dimensional formula of force is `[MLT^(-2)]` `:. a= 1, b= 1, c=-2` `n_(2)= n_(1)[(M_(1))/(M_(2))]^(a)[(L_(1))/(L_(2))]^(b)[(T_(1))/(T_(2))]^(c)= 36[(1KG)/(1g)]^(1)[(am)/(1CM)^(1)][(1min)/(1s)]^(-2)` `=36[(1000g)/(1g)]^(1)[(100CM)/(1cm)^(1)][(60S)/(1s)]^(-2)= (36 xx10^(3) xx 10^(2))/(3600)= 10^(3)` Hence, in the CGS system of units the value of given force is `10^(3)` dyne |
