Convert 1 newton (SI unit of force) into dyne (CGS unit of force)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The dimensional equation of forces is `[F]= [M^(1)L^(1)T^(-2)]`
Therefore if `n_1, u_1 and n_2, u_2` corresponds to SI & CGS units respectively, then
`n_2= n_1[(M_1)/(M_2)]^(1) [(L_1)/(L_2)]^(1) [(T_1)/(T_2)]^(2) =1 [ (kg)/(g)][(m)/(cm)] [(s)/(s)] ^(-2) = 1xx 1000 xx 100 xx 1 = 10^(5) ` `" "therefore 1 ` newton = `10^(5)` dyne.
