The SI unit of length is the meter. Suppose we adopt a new unit of length which equals to x meters. The area 1m2 expressed in terms of the new unit has a magnitude-

A

`x`

B

`x^2`

C

`1/x`

D

`1/(x^2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
New unit = x metre
1 metre = `("new unit")/(x)`
`1 m^2 = 1/(x^2) ("new unit")^2`
