JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 10th January Morning Slot - No. 10)
The density of a material in SI units is 128 kg m–3
. In certain units in which the unit of length is 25 cm and the unit of mass is 50 g, the numerical value of density of the material is -
40
640
16
410
Explanation
Here given that
density of a material in SI units is 128 kg m–3
And a new unit system is introduced where 1 unit of length = 25 cm and 1 unit of mass = 50 g
You should know that, physical quantity is same in any unit system. And to calculate a physical quantity yo should know two things
(1) numerical value of the physical quantity (n)
(2) unit of the physical quantity (u)
And n $$ \times $$ u = constant in any unit system.
Here in SI unit system,
n1 = 128
u1 = kg/m3
And in new unit system,
n2 = ?
u2 = 50gm/(25cm)3
As n1u1 = n2u2
$$ \therefore $$ 128 $$ \times $$ (kg/m3) = n2 $$ \times $$ 50gm/(25cm)3
$$ \Rightarrow $$ 128 $$ \times $$ $${{1000\,gm} \over {{{\left( {100\,cm} \right)}^3}}}$$ = n2 $$ \times $$ $${{50\,gm} \over {{{\left( {25\,cm} \right)}^3}}}$$
$$ \Rightarrow $$ n2 = 128 $$ \times $$ $${{20} \over {{4^3}}}$$ = 40
