Question
Question: The value of universal gravitational constant \(G = 6.67 \times 10^{- 11}Nm^{2}kg^{- 2}\). The value...
The value of universal gravitational constant G=6.67×10−11Nm2kg−2. The value of G in units of g-1 cm3 s-2 is
A
6.67 × 10-8
B
6.67 × 10-7
C
6.67 × 10-9
D
6.67 × 10-10
Answer
6.67 × 10-8
Explanation
Solution
G=6.67×10−11Nm2kg−2
=6.67×10−11×(kgms−2)(m2)(kg)−2=6.67×10−11×[(1000g)×(100cm)×s−2]×(100cm)2×(1000g)−2=6.67×10−11×105×104×10−6g−1cm3s−2=6.67×10−8g−1cm3s−2
