The wrong unit conversion among the following is

  1. 1 angstrom = $10^{-10} m$

  2. 1 fermi = $10^{-15}$ m

  3. 1 light year = $9.46 \times 10^{15} m$

  4. 1 astronomical unit = $1.496 \times 10^{-11} m$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
$A)1 $Angstrom: $1$ Ångström is equal to$ 0.1 $nanometers. Expressed in the SI base unit meters $1$ Ångström is equal to $1 \times 10^{-10}$ meters. $1 Å = 0.0000000001 m.$

$B)$Definition of fermi unit: $≡ 1\times 10^{−15} m.$

$C)$The light-year is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances and measures about $9.46$ trillion kilometres $(9.46 \times 10^{12} km)$ or $5.88$ trillion miles $(5.88 \times 10^{12} mi).$

$D)$The total radiation power received from the sun on a unit area perpendicular to the sun rays at the mean earth-sun distance, termed an astronomical unit, is called the solar constant (SC), where $1$ astronomical unit $= 1 AU = 1.496 \times 10^{11} m.$

So $D$ is wrong unit conversion 

A calorie is a unit of heat energy and its value is 4.18 J where $1 J = 1 kg m^2 s^{-2}$. 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 then

  1. 4.18 $\displaystyle \frac{\gamma^2}{\alpha \beta^2}$

  2. 4.18 $\displaystyle \frac{\alpha \beta^2}{\gamma^2}$

  3. 4.18 $\displaystyle \frac{\gamma^2}{\alpha}$

  4. 4.18 $\displaystyle \frac{\beta^2}{\alpha \gamma^2}$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$1 J = (1 kg) ( 1 m)^2 (1 sec)^{-2}$
$1 x = (\alpha kg) (\beta m)^2 (\gamma sec)^{-2}$
$\displaystyle \therefore \frac{1 J}{1x} = \left( \frac{1}{\alpha} \right) \left( \frac{1}{\beta} \right)^2 (\gamma)^2 = \frac{\gamma^2}{\alpha \beta^2} $
$\displaystyle \therefore 1 J = \frac{\gamma^2}{\alpha \beta^2}$ or $\displaystyle 1 cal = 4.18 \displaystyle \frac{\gamma^2}{\alpha \beta^2}$

Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Electron volt, unit of energy commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics, equal to the energy gained by an electron (a charged particle carrying unit electronic charge) when the electrical potential at the electron increases by one volt. The electron volt equals $1.602\times 10^{-12}\,erg$  or  $1.602\times 10^{-19}\,joule$.

If the units of length and force are increased four times, then unit of energy will

  1. becomes 8 times

  2. becomes 16 times

  3. decrease 16 times

  4. increase 4 times


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Unit of Energy $= kg. m^2/ s^2$

Unit of Force $= kg. m/s^2$

Unit of Length $= m$

Thus, unit of energy in terms of unit of force and length is given by

Unit of Energy $= (kg. m/s^2) \times (m)$

If the units of length and force are increased by four times,

the unit of energy will be:

Unit of Energy $= (4 .kg. m/s^2) \times (4m)$

Unit of Energy $= 16 (kg. m^2/s^2)$

Therefore, if the units of length and force are increased by four times, the unit of energy will change by $16$ times.

If 1 mg $ns^{-1}$ = $10^x \mu g ps^{-1}$, then the value of x is _________.

  1. 1

  2. 2

  3. -1

  4. 0


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
We know that
$1\ mg=10^3\ \mu g$
$1\ ns=10^3\ ps$

Therefore, it can be written as:
$1mgn{ s }^{ -1 }={ 10 }^{ 3 }\mu gn{ s }^{ -1 }$

$ =\dfrac { { 10 }^{ 3 } }{ { 10 }^{ 3 } } \mu gp{ s }^{ -1 }$

$ ={ 10 }^{ 0 }\mu gp{ s }^{ -1 }\\ \Rightarrow x=0$
