The density of material in CGS system of...

The density of material in CGS system of units is `4gcm^(-3)`. In a system of units in which unit of length is 10 cm and unit of mass is 100 gm, then the value of density of material will be

A

0.04

B

0.4

C

40

D

400

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Dimensional formula : `M^(1)L^(-3)a=1, b=-3`
`n_(1)u_(1)=n_(2)u_(2)`
`n_(2)=n_(1)(u_(1))/(u_(2))`
`n_(2)=4xx((M_(1))/(M_(2)))^(1)((L_(1))/(L_(2)))^(-3)`
`=4xx((1)/(100))((1)/(10))^(-3)`
`=4xx(1000)/(100)="40 units."`
