In a system of units the units of length is defined as the distance travelled by light in space in 1 s and the unit of time taken by the earth to revolve round the sun once. Find the velocity unit in CGS system.

Explanation

In this system unit distance `= 3xx10^(10)` cm and unit time = 365.25 d = `3.156 xx 10^(7)` s
`:.` Velocity unit in this system
`=(3xx10^(10))/(3.156xx10^(7))=950.57 "cm".s^(-1)`.
