Question

If the value of universal gravitational constant in SI is 6.6 into 10 to the power minus 11 nanometre square kilogram 2 power minus 2 then find its value in CGS system

Answer 1

Answer:

G=6.6×10^-11Nm^2 kg^-2

=6.6×10^-11kg^-1 m^3 s^-2

since,

1kg=10^3g

1m=10^2g

Hence

=6.6×10^-11(10^3g)(10^2cm)3s^-2

=6.6×10^-11-3+3 g^-1cm^3 s^-2

=6.6×10^-8g^-1cm^3 s^-2
