This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a) Plane angle = l/r radian its si unit is radian but no dimension formula.

(b) Strain= ? L L = c h a n g e i n l e n g t h l e n g t h so no dimension

And g =9.8m/s2

(c) Gravitational constant G= 6.67 * 10 - 11 N m 2 / k g 2

(d) Reynold's number is a number having no dimension.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

F= [MLT-2]=100N…….1

Length L= 10m………….2

Time t= 100s……….3

Substituting the value of L and T  in eqn 1,2,3

M * 10 * 100 - 2 = 100

M * 10 100 * 100 = 100

M=100 * 1000 k g

M= 105kg

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Rme= distance of moon from earth

Rse=distance of sun from earth

Let angle made by sun and moon is .

θ=AsunRse2=AmoonRme2

θ=πRs2Rse2=πRm2Rme2

RsRse )2 = ( RmRme )2

RsRm )= ( RseRme )

Hence radius of sun and moon represents their sizes respectively.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

It is given that 50 VSD 49 M S D

1MSD = 50/49VSD

1VSD= 49/50MSD

Minimum inaccuracy = 1MSD-1VSD= 1MSD-49/50MSD=1/50 MSD

1MSD= 0.5mm

Minimum inaccuracy = 1/50 * 0.5mm=0.01mm

Distance of galaxy = 1025m

Speed of light = 3 * 108 m/s

T = distance /speed = 10 25 3 * 10 8 1 3 * 10 17

= 10 3 * 10 16 s

3.33 * 10 16 s

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a)

 l=RE; r= 60RE

θ = R E 60 R E = 1 60 r a d = 1 60 * 180 π d e g r e e = 3 π 1 o

Hence angle subtend is 2 o

(b) But in 2nd case it is given that moon is (½)° and earth is 2o so it become 4 times.

d i a m e t e r o f e a r t h d i a m e t e r o f m o o n = 2 / π 1 / 2 π = 4

(c) To measure parallax sun is about 400 times the earth moon distance hence r s u n r m o o n = 400

To finding ratio of

Dsunrsun=Dsunrmoon

DsunDmoon=400

DearthDmoon=4

so DsunDearth=100

so DsunDearth=100

Because they cannot be derived from one another as they are independent quantities.

Also we can say that all other quantities in mechanics can be expressed in terms of length mass and time.

Since f ( θ ) is a sum of different powers of θ  an we know that it is a dimensionless quantity. By principle of homogeneity as RHS is dimensionless. Hence LHS should also be dimensionless.
