A calorie is a unit of heat enegy and its value is 4.18 J where 1J=kg `m^(2)s^(-2)`. Suppose we use a new system of units in which unit of mass equals `alpha` kg, the unit of length equals `beta`m and the unit of the time is `gamma` sec. then the value of a calorie in the new system of units is

A

`4.18(gamma^(2))/(alpha beta^(2))`

B

`4.18(alpha beta^(2))/(gamma^(2))`

C

`4.18(gamma^(2))/(alpha)`

D

`4.18(beta^(2))/(alpha gamma^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

I calorie `=4.18J=4.18kg-m^(2)//s^(2)`
`=[4.18(gamma^(2))/(alphabeta^(2))]((alpha kg)(betam)^(2))/((gammas)^(2))`
