Explanation:
The SI unit of kilogram per cubic metre (kg/m3) and the cgs unit of gram per cubic centimetre (g/cm3) are probably the most commonly used units fordensity. 1,000 kg/m3 equals 1 g/cm3.
We have to find the conversion factor for SI & CGS units of density.
We know,
⇒ Density = Mass / Volume
In S.I system,
- Unit of mass is kg.
- Unit of volume is m³
While in CGS system,
- Unit of mass is g.
- Unit of volume is cm³
Now, Let us find the conversion factor. The value of 1 kg/m³ in CGS system would be the conversion factor for CGS,
⇒ Density = Mass / Volume
⇒ Kg / m³
We know,
- 1 kg = 1000 g
- 1 m = 100 cm , 1 m³ = 10⁶ cm³
⇒ 1000 g / 10⁶ cm³
⇒ 10³ g / 10⁶ cm³
⇒ 10⁻³ g cm⁻³
Here, The conversion factor is 10⁻³
☛ Multiply the value by 10⁻³ to convert it into CGS system.
☛ Divide the value by 10⁻³ to convert it into S.I system.
Some Examples :-
[1]
In SI,
- 2.3 kg m⁻³
Multiply the value by 10⁻³ to convert it into CGS system.
⇒ 2.3 × 10⁻³
⇒ 0.0023 g cm⁻³
[2]
In CGS,
- 0.0032 g cm⁻³
Divide the value by 10⁻³ to convert it into SI system.
⇒ 0.0032 / 10⁻³
⇒ 0.0032 × 10³
⇒ 3.2 kg m⁻³
