Q.13.1 Estimate the fraction of molecular volume to the actual volume occupied by oxygen gas at STP. Take the diameter of an oxygen molecule to be 3 Å.

2.3 A calorie is a unit of heat (energy in transit) and it equals about 4.2 J where 1J = 1 kg m² 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 units.

Q.4.6 Establish the following vector inequalities geometrically or otherwise:

(a) |a+b| < |a| + |b|

(b) |a+b| > a| −|b

(c) |a−−b| < |a| + |b|

(d) |a−−b| > a| − |b

When does the equality sign above apply?
