9. Find the value of 60 joule/minute on a system which has 100 gm, 100 cm and 1 minute as fundamental units.
10. Find the unit of length, mass and time if the unit o fore, velocity and energy, respectively are 100 dyne, 10 cms–1 and 500 erg.
11. Reynolds number N R (a dimensionless quantity) determine the condition of laminar flow of a various liquid
through a pipe. N R is a function of the density of the liquid ‘ρ’, its average speed ‘v’ and coefficient of viscosity
‘η’. Given that N g is also directly proportional to ‘D’ (the diameter of the pipe), show from dimensional
ρdV
consideration that N R ∝ The unit of η is SI system is kg m -1 s -1 .
