Important units of measurement in physics


Dear friends units is a important part of physics so most probably chance to more than two question in UPTET 2013. 

Name of 7 fundamental units—
Fundamental Quantities —- Units
Length.                           —-meter
Mass.                          —-kilogram
Time.                       —-second
                                  Temperature.        —-kelvin (K)
                                  Electric current.   —-ampere(A)
                                  Luminous intensity -candela(cd)
                                  Molecular quantity -mole.    (mole)

                                1 day =86400second
  
                            Tera (10¹²)
                         Giga (10^9)
                      Mega (10^6)
                   Kilo (10³)
              Hecto(10²)
         Deca(10¹)              
Base
         Decided(10-¹)
                 Centi(10-²)
                     Mili (10-³)
                         Micro (10-6)
                               Nano (10-9)
                                    Pico (10-¹²)

Note

1angstrom (A°)=10-¹° meter   
Use for Light wave .

1 Light year=9.46×10¹5 meter
                    =10¹6meter(aprox)

Momentum unit =kg×ms-¹
Impulse of aforce=newton×second
Unit of Motion =ms-¹
    Acceleration =ms-²(^V/s)
               
Force=kg×ms-² (F=ma)
   Also known as=newton

Unit of Gravitational force=newton
Unit of
Universal.  Gravitation constant (G)
=newton.m².kg-² (G=F×r²/m1m2)

Value of constant  G=6.67×10^-9
Unit of weight =kg.ms-² (W=m.g)
                        =newton
   Gravity  ( g) =ms-²

Note

1 kg Weight =1kg×9.8ms-²
                    =9.8kg.ms-²
                    =newton

Units of work=newton ×meter
                W= F×d
Also know as= juole(j)

Power(p) =W/t
Unit of power =joule×s-¹
Also known as=watt

Note- 1 H.P=746watt(approx)

Unit of Energy =Joule
Also unit of energy =kilo-watt-hours

Mass energy (E)=mc²
Light speed (c)=3×10^8ms-¹
Wavelength of wave
                       Lambda=v/n
   v=wave speed    (ms-¹)    n=frequency (Hartz)

Note– Classification of waves
      ( A) Mechanical
      ( B) Electro-magnetic
A) Mechanical waves –Basicaly its three types

(I) Sonic waves /Sound.
Range of frequency
20-20,000 /second

(II) Subsonic waves
Range of frequency  
Less than 20

(III) Ultrasonic waves
Range of frequency
More than 20,000

This waves use in medical science known as ultrasound or ultrasonography.

(B)Electro-magnetic waves
     Its not required any medium .
Also known as Radiation.

Types of Radiation
1-Gamma radiation –Low waveslength ↑-High frequency ↓
2-Xrays
3-Ultraviolet radiation
4-Light
5-Infrared /heat radiation
6-Hertzian waves

Note-
 
Speed of sound increase as go down-
Corbondioxide
Air
Hidrogen
Alcohol
Water
Tin
Iron
glass
grenite stone

Temperature :
Celsius scale ( °c)
Fahrenhelt (°F)
Kelvin (°K)

  °K=-273.15°C (absolute zero)
°C=273°K
100°C=373.15°K

Note-

Relationship between °F and°C-
C/5=F-32/9

Linear Expansion of Solid
Alfalfa=delta L/L×delta t

Unit of it- °c-¹
Unit if specific heat-
                       Q=s×m×delta t

                   s=joule.KG-¹°C-¹
Also known as kalori.gram-¹×°C-¹
                      1 Kalori=4.18 joule
