The Young's modulus of a wire is given by $Y = \frac{F}{A} \cdot \frac{L}{\Delta L}$,where $L$ is length,$A$ is cross-sectional area,and $\Delta L$ is the change in length. By what factor must we multiply to convert the value from $CGS$ units to $MKS$ units?

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $0.1$
  • D
    $0.01$

Why does the concept of dimension have basic importance?

In a typical combustion engine,the work done by a gas molecule is given by $W = \alpha^{2} \beta e^{\frac{-\beta x^{2}}{kT}}$,where $x$ is the displacement,$k$ is the Boltzmann constant,and $T$ is the temperature. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants,the dimensions of $\alpha$ will be:

The equation for a real gas is given by $(P + \frac{a}{V^2})(V - b) = RT$,where $P, V, T$ and $R$ are the pressure,volume,temperature,and gas constant,respectively. The dimension of $ab^{-2}$ is equivalent to that of
