Question

The numerical value of a measurement is:

• A. directly proportional to unit
• B. inversly proportional to unit
• C. both
• D. none

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

inversly proportional to unit

$n_1{u}_1=$ constant
($n_1$ $\to$ numerical value)
($u_1$ $\to$ units)
$\Rightarrow n_1=\frac{constant}{u_1}$
$\Rightarrow n_1\alpha \frac{1}{u_1}\Rightarrow$ inversely proportional.
