Students $$I, \,II$$ and $$III$$ perform an experiment for measuring the acceleration due to gravity $$\left( g \right)$$ using a simple pendulum. They use different lengths of the pendulum and/or record time for different number of oscillations. The observations are shown in the table.
Least count for length $$= 0.1\,cm$$
Least count for time $$= 0.1\,s$$

If $${E_I},\,{E_{II}}{\text{ and }}{E_{III}}$$ are the percentage errors in g, i.e., $$\left( {\frac{{\Delta g}}{g} \times 100} \right)$$ for students $$I,II{\text{ and }}III,$$ respectively, then-
Unit of energy will be $$kg - {m^2}/se{c^2}$$
whereas kg.m/s is the unit of momentum.

In a new system of units, the fundamental quantities mass, length and time are replaced by acceleration $$'a',$$ density $$'\rho '$$ and frequency $$'f'.$$ The dimensional formula for force in this system is
A
$$\left[ {\rho {a^4}f} \right]$$
B
$$\left[ {\rho {a^4}{f^{ - 6}}} \right]$$
C
$$\left[ {{\rho ^{ - 1}}{a^{ - 4}}{f^6}} \right]$$
$$F = ma = \rho \,{\text{volume}}\,'a'$$
To write volume in terms of $$'a'$$ and $$'f'$$
Volume $$ = {L^3} = {\left( {\frac{L}{{{T^2}}}} \right)^3}{T^6} = {a^3}{f^{ - 6}}$$
$$\therefore F = \rho {a^4}{f^{ - 6}}$$

A physical quantity of the dimensions of length that can be formed out of $$c, G$$ and $$\frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}$$ is [$$c$$ is velocity of light, $$G$$ is universal constant of gravitation and $$e$$ is charge]
A
$$\frac{1}{{{c^2}}}{\left[ {G\frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}} \right]^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$
B
$${c^2}{\left[ {G\frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}} \right]^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$
C
$$\frac{1}{{{c^2}}}{\left[ {\frac{{{e^2}}}{{G\,4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}} \right]^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$
D
$$\frac{1}{c}G\frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}$$
In multiplication or division the final result should return as many significant figures as there are in the original number with the least significant figures.

What is the correct number of significant figures in 0.0003026?
If number is < 1, then zero(s) on right of decimal but left of first non-zero digit not significant.

Young's modulus of steel is $$1.9 \times {10^{11}}N/{m^2}.$$ When expressed in CGS units of $$dyne/c{m^2},$$ it will be equal to $$\left( {1\,N = {{10}^5}dyne,1\,{m^2} = {{10}^4}c{m^2}} \right)$$

A quantity $$X$$ is given by $${\varepsilon _0}L\frac{{\Delta V}}{{\Delta t}}$$ where $${ \in _0}$$ is the permittivity of the free space, $$L$$ is a length, $${\Delta V}$$ is a potential difference and $${\Delta t}$$ is a time interval. The dimensional formula for $$X$$ is the same as that of
Dimensionally $${\varepsilon _0}L = C$$
where $$C =$$ capacitance
Now the given expression reduces to $$\frac{{C\Delta V}}{{\Delta t}}.$$
Dimensionally $$C\Delta V = q$$ where $$q$$ is charge.
Again the given expression reduces to $$\frac{q}{{\Delta t}}.$$
Dimensionally $$\frac{q}{{\Delta t}} = I$$ where $$I$$ is current
