Question

If the acceleration due to gravity is 10ms-2 and the units of length and time are changed in kilometre and hour respectively, the numerical value of acceleration is

Moderate
Solution

As, n2=n1L1L21T1T2-2=10mkm1sechr-2

(Here, n1andn2 are numerical values)

n2=10m103m1sec3600sec-2=129600
