AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the statement "Kg is the unit of mass in the M.K.S. system" is true or false, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the M.K.S. System The M.K.S. system stands for Meter-Kilogram-Second system. It is one of the systems of measurement used in physics. ### Step 2: Identify the Units in the M.K.S. System In the M.K.S. system: - The unit of length is the meter (m). - The unit of mass is the kilogram (kg). - The unit of time is the second (s). ### Step 3: Analyze the Statement The statement claims that "Kg is the unit of mass in the M.K.S. system." Since we have identified that the unit of mass in the M.K.S. system is indeed the kilogram (kg), we can conclude that the statement is accurate. ### Step 4: Conclusion Since the kilogram is the correct unit of mass in the M.K.S. system, the statement is **True**. ### Final Answer The statement "Kg is the unit of mass in the M.K.S. system" is **True**. ---
