In physics, every physical quantity is measured with respect to a unit. Time is measured in seconds, length is measured in meters, and mass is measured in kilograms. Knowing the units of physical quantities will help you solve problems in physics. Gravity causes objects to be attracted to one another. This attraction keeps our feet firmly planted on the ground and causes the moon to orbit the earth. The force of gravitational attraction is represented by the equation.

F= Gm1m2 /r^2

where F is the magnitude of the gravitational attraction on either body, m1 and m2 are the masses of the bodies, r is the distance between them, and G is the gravitational constant. In Sl units, the units of force are kg m/s^2, the units of mass are kg, and the units of distance are m. For this equation to have consistent units, the units of G must be which of the following?

a. kg^3/ms^2
b. kgs^2/m^3
c. m^3/kgs^2
d. m/kgs^2

Unit of G = m³/kg s²

Explanation:

The force of gravitational attraction is represented by the equation.

F is the magnitude of the gravitational attraction on either body

m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the bodies, r is the distance between them. G is the gravitational constant.

We need to find the unit of G.

Rearranging the above formula for G.

Putting units of F,m and r such that,

Hence, the correct option is (c) m³/kg s².

the answer is d. 4

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it
