A calorie is a unit of heat or energy and it equals about 4.2 J where 1J = 1 kg `m^2 s^(–2)`. Suppose we employ a system of units in which the unit of mass equals α kg, the unit of length equals β m, the unit of time is γ s. Show that a calorie has a magnitude 4.2 `α^(–1) β^(–2) γ^(2)` in terms of the new

Answer the following : (a)You are given a thread and a meter scale. How will you estimate the diameter of the thread ? (b)A screw gauge has a pitch of 1.0 mm and 200 divisions on the circular scale. Do you think it is possible to increase the accuracy of the screw gauge arbitrarily by increasing the number of divisions on the circular scale ? (c) The mean diameter of a thin brass rod is to be measured by vernier callipers. Why is a set of 100 measurements of the diameter expected to yield a more reliable estimate than a

Two resistors of resistances `R_1 = 100 ±3` ohm and `R_2 = 200 ± 4` ohm are connected (a) in series, (b) in parallel. Find the equivalent resistance of the (i) series combination, (ii) parallel combination. Use for (a) the relation `R = R_1 + R_2`, and for (b) `1/R^'=1/R_1+1/R_2` and `(∆R^')/(R^('2)) = (∆R_1)/R_1^2+(∆R_2)/R_2^2`

A famous relation in physics relates ‘moving mass’ m to the ‘rest mass’ `m_o` of a particle in terms of its speed v and the speed of light, c. (This relation first arose as a consequence of special relativity due to Albert Einstein). A boy recalls the relation almost correctly but forgets where to put the constant c. He writes : `m=m_o/((1-v^2)^(1/2))` Guess where to put the missing
