The same physical quantity is expressed ...

The same physical quantity is expressed in two different units `x_(1)` and `x_(2)`. The corresponding numerical values of the quantity are `n_(1)` and `n_(2)` respectively. Then

A

`n_(1)x_(1)=n_(2)x_(2)`

B

`n_(1)x_(2)=n_(2)x_(1)`

C

`n_(1)n_(2)=x_(1)x_(2)`

D

`n_(2)-n_(1)=x_(2)-x_(1).`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
A physical quantity is the product of numerical value and unit `i.e.nu.`
Hence `(a)` is the choice.
