Question
If the unit of force is 100N, unit of length is 10m and unit of time is 100s, what is the unit of mass in this system of units?

Answer

Dimension of force $=[\text{M}^1\text{L}^1\text{T}^2]=100\text{N}\ ...(\text{i})$ Dimension of length $=[\text{L}^1]=10\text{m}\ ...(\text{ii})$ Dimension of time $=[\text{T}^1]=100\text{s}\ ...(\text{iii})$ Substituting (ii), (iii) in (i) $\text{M}\times(10)\times(100)^{-2}=100$ $\frac{10\text{M}}{100\times100}=100$ $\text{M}=10^5\text{Kg L}=10^1\text{m}$ $\text{F}=10^2\text{N}\ \ \text{T}=10^2\text{sec}$

The principle of ‘parallax’ in section $2.3.1$ is used in the determination of distances of very distant stars. The baseline AB is the line joining the Earth’s two locations six months apart in its orbit around the Sun. That is, the baseline is about the diameter of the Earth’s orbit $\approx 3 \times 10^{11}m$. However, even the nearest stars are so distant that with such a long baseline, they show parallax only of the order of $1”$ (second) of arc or so. A parsec is a convenient unit of length on the astronomical scale. It is the distance of an object that will show a parallax of $1”$ (second of arc) from opposite ends of a baseline equal to the distance from the Earth to the Sun. How much is a parsec in terms of metres?
