In `cgs` system , the unit of coefficient of viscosity is poise`(P)`. One poise is equivalent to

A

`10 kg m^(-1) s^(-1)`

B

`1 kg m^(-1) s^(-1)`

C

`10^(-1) kg m^(-1) s^(-1)`

D

`10^(2) kg m^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`1 P = 1 dyn s cm^(-2)`
` = 1 g cm^(-1) s^(-1)`
` = 10^(-1) kg m^(-1) s^(-1)`
i.e., `1 P = 1//10 th` of the `SI unit`.
