Question

State True or False.

The CGS unit of pressure is $10$ times greater than the MKS unit of pressure.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

CGS unit of pressure is $dynec{m}^{-2}$

MKS unit of pressure is $N/M^2$

$1dynec{m}^{-2}=\frac{{10}^{-5}}{{10}^{-4}}=\frac{1}{10}N{m}^2$

So 1 MKS unit is 10 times of CGS unit.
