In a system of units , the unit of force is 100N, unit of length is 10m and the unit of times is 100s. What is the unit of mass in this system?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `F=MLT^2=100N to (1),`
`L=10m, T=100s`
`therefore` from equation (1)
`Mtimes(10)times(100)^-2=100impliesMtimes10^-3=100`
`impliesM=100/10^-3impliesM=10^5kg`
