The correct Answer is:
To find the value of 15 joules in a system with fundamental units of 10 cm, 100 gm, and 20 sec, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the dimensions of energy The dimension of energy (Joule) is given by: \[ \text{Energy} = \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2} \] where: - M = mass - L = length - T = time ### Step 2: Identify the units in the new system In the new system, we have: - Length (L) = 10 cm = \(10^{-1}\) m - Mass (M) = 100 gm = \(10^{-1}\) kg - Time (T) = 20 sec ### Step 3: Convert the given energy from joules to the new system Using the relation: \[ n_1 u_1 = n_2 u_2 \] where: - \( n_1 = 15 \) joules (the energy we want to convert) - \( u_1 = 1 \text{ J} = 1 \text{ kg m}^2/\text{s}^2 \) (energy in SI units) - \( n_2 \) is the energy in the new system - \( u_2 \) is the energy in the new system expressed in terms of the new units. ### Step 4: Express \( u_2 \) in terms of the new units Using the dimensions: \[ u_2 = M^1 L^2 T^{-2} \] Substituting the new units: - \( M = 100 \text{ gm} = 0.1 \text{ kg} \) - \( L = 10 \text{ cm} = 0.1 \text{ m} \) - \( T = 20 \text{ sec} \) Now substituting these values into the expression for \( u_2 \): \[ u_2 = (0.1 \text{ kg}) \times (0.1 \text{ m})^2 \times (20 \text{ sec})^{-2} \] \[ u_2 = 0.1 \times 0.01 \times \frac{1}{400} \] \[ u_2 = \frac{0.001}{400} = 2.5 \times 10^{-6} \text{ J} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( n_2 \) Now, substituting back into the relation: \[ n_2 = \frac{u_1}{u_2} \times n_1 \] \[ n_2 = \frac{1 \text{ J}}{2.5 \times 10^{-6} \text{ J}} \times 15 \] \[ n_2 = \frac{15}{2.5 \times 10^{-6}} \] \[ n_2 = 6 \times 10^{6} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of 15 joules in the new system is: \[ n_2 = 6 \times 10^{6} \text{ new units of energy} \] ---

To find the value of 15 joules in a system with fundamental units of 10 cm, 100 gm, and 20 sec, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the dimensions of energy The dimension of energy (Joule) is given by: \[ \text{Energy} = \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2} \] where: - M = mass - L = length ...
