Density of wood is `0.5 g//c c` in the CGS system of units. The corresponding value in MKS units is

Options

A. 500
B. 5
C. 0.5
D. 5000

Answer

A

Explanation

1 C.G.S unit of density `=1g//cm^3`
`=1/(1000) kg xx(1)/((1/100m)^3)`
`= 1000kg //m^3` in S.I or M.K.S. system
0.5g / cc `= 0.5 xx 1000 kg//m^3`
`implies 0.5 g//cm^3= 500 kg//m^3`
