Young’s modulus of steel is 19 x10^10N/m2 . Express it in C.G.S system.
Answers
Answer:
1N=10⁵dyne
1m2=10⁴cm²
=>19×10¹⁰×10⁵/10⁴dyne/cm²
=>19×10¹¹ dyne/cm²
Explanation:
Dyne and Newton, both are units of force. While Dyne is specified in C-G-S(Centimeter – Gram – Second) unit system, Newton is specified in modern SI unit system which gives the relationship Young’s Modulus between stress and strain. It is used to measure hardness of material.
Here stress is force applied per unit area, strain is deformation happened on object.
