Correct option is B
In the
centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system,
force is measured in
dyne. One
dyne is defined as the
force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimetre per second squared (cm/s²).
The formula for force in CGS units is:
Information Booster:
· The
SI unit of force is the
Newton (N), where:
· The CGS unit system is mostly used in
scientific research and
older physics texts, while the
MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system and
SI units (International System of Units) use
Newton for force.
