Explanation:
Light year: distance light travels in one year in vacuum ≈ 9.46×10¹⁵ m. Astronomical distance unit, not time. Memory aid: 'Light year = speed × time = distance'. Unit knowledge frequently tested in competitive exams to avoid common misconception about light year being time unit.
Explanation:
1 kWh = 1000 W × 3600 s = 3,600,000 J = 3.6 × 10⁶ J. This is a standard conversion. Power (watt) × time (hour) gives energy. 1 watt = 1 J/s. Remember this for electricity bills.
Explanation:
G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg² in SI, and 6.67 × 10⁻⁸ dyne cm²/g² in CGS. Both are correct. Important constant, measured by Cavendish. g is acceleration due to gravity, different.
