 Units and Measurements Class 11 Important Questions Short Answer Type

Question 1.
Which of the following is the most precise device for measuring length :
(a) A vernier callipers with 20 divisions on the sliding scale.
(b) A screw gauge of pitch 1mm and 100 divisions on the circular scale.
(c) An optical instrument that can measure length to within a wavelength of light.
Answer:
The most precise device is that whose least count is minimum.
Now, (a) Least count of vernier callipers = 1 MSD – 1 VSD
= 1MSD – \(-\frac{19}{20}\) MSD = \(\frac{1}{20}\) MSD
= \(\frac{1}{20}\) mm =\(\frac{1}{200}\) cm
= 0.005 cm
(b) Least count of screw guage
= 0.001cm
(c) Wavelength of light, λ ≈ 10 ^-5 cm = 0.00001 cm
∴ Least count of optical instrument = 0.00001 cm Thus, clearly the optical instrument is the most precise.

Question 2.
What are the uses of dimensional analysis?
Answer:
Uses :

• To find the unit of a physical quantity.
• To change one system of units into another system.
• To check the correctness of a physical relation.
• To establish relation between different physical quantities.

Question 3.
Distinguish between fundamental units and derived units.
Answer:
Difference between fundamental and derived units :

Fundamental units	Derived units
1. The units of fundamental quantities are called fundamental units.	The units of derived quantities are called derived units.
2. These units are independent.	These units depend upon fundamental units.
3. There are seven fundamental units and two supplementary units in SI system.	These units are not limited in number.

Question 4.
Answer the following:
(a) You are given a thread and a metre scale. How will you estimate the diametre of the thread?
(b) A screw gauge has a pitch of 1.0 mm and 200 divisions on the circular scale. Do you think it is possible to increase the accuracy of the screw gauge arbitrarily by increasing the number of divisions on the circular scale?
Answer:
(a) The diameter of a thread is so small that is cannot be measured using a metre scale. We wind the thread on in close turns on a pencil or a cylindrical glass rod so that the turns touch one another and are tight. Count the number of turns (n) and find the average length (l) of the coiled thread using the metre scale. Divide this average length by the number of turns to get the diameter i.e.,
Diameter = \(\frac{\text { Average length }}{\text { Number of turns }}\) = \(\frac{l}{n}\)

(b) Yes, the accuracy of the gauge increases by increasing the number of divisions of the circular scale because the least count is given by :
Least count = \(\frac{\text { Pitch }}{\text { No. of divisions on the circular scale }}\)
So, theoretically speaking, least count decreases on increasing the number of divisions on the circular scale.

Question 5.
Let us choose such a unit accordance to which velocity of light be one unit. On the basis of this new unit, what will be the distance between Sun and Earth if light takes 8 minute and 20 second to reach earth?
Answer:
Velocity of light = 1 (as per new unit)
Time taken by light to reach earth surface = (60 × 8 + 20) = 500 sec.
∴ Distance between Sun and Earth = Velocity of Light × Time
= 1 × 500 = 500 Unit of length.

Question 6.
Check the correctness of formula, v² = u² +2las by dimensional method.
Answer:
v²=u²+las
Now, dimensions ofu and v = [LT^-1], dimensions of a =[LT^-2]
Dimensions of s = [L]
and 2 is dimensionless
∴ [LT^-1]² =[LT^-1]²+[LT^-2L]
or [ L²T^-2 ] = [ L²T^-2] + [ L²T^-2]
Since, the dimensions of each term is same, hence the formula is true.

Question 7.
What do you mean by principle of homogeneity of dimensions?
Answer:
According to this principle the dimensions of all terms on both the sides of a dimensional equation are same.

Units and Measurements Class 11 Important Questions Long Answer Type

Question 1.
The velocity of sound waves in a medium depends upon the coefficient of elasticity of the medium (E) and its density (d). Establish the formula for the velocity of wave by dimensional method.
Answer:
Let the velocity of sound in the air depends upon the coefficient of elasticity and density of medium, then
v ∝ E^ad^b
or v = k ,E^ad^b ……..(1)
Where v = velocity of sound, E = coefficient of elasticity, d – density and a and b are numbers and k is dimensionless constant.
Now, the dimensional formulae of quantities are :
v=[LT^-1]
E = [ML^-1T^-2]
d = [ML^-3]
By eqn. (1) we get
or [LT^-1] =[ML^-1T^-2]^a[ML^-3]^b
or [LT^-1] =[M^aL^-a’T^-2aM^bL^-3b]
or [LT^-1] =[M^a+b + L^-a-3bT^-2a]
Now,by the principle of homogeneity, the dimension of both the sides will be equal.
a + b = 0 …(2)
∴ -a-3b=1 …(3)
-2a = -1 …(4)
Hence, a=\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Putting the value of a in eqn. (1), we get
\(\frac{1}{2}\)+ b = 0
or
b = – \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Putting the values of a and b in eqn. (1), we get
v = k.E^1/2d-d^-1/2
or

This is the required relation.

Question 2.
How much dyne is in one Newton?
Answer:
Dimensional formula for force is [MLT^-2].
Here, a=1,b=1 and c = -2

Putting the value, we get
n₂= n₁[10³] [10² ] [1]
or
n₂ = n₁ × 10n⁵
If n₁ = 1 dyne
Then n₂ = 1 Newton
∴ 1 Newton = 10⁵ dyne.

Question 3.
According to van der Wall relation between pressure P, volume V and temperature T is given by

Where a and b are constant. Find the dimensions of a and b.
Answer:
According to homogineity of dimensional equation, a
Dimension of \(\frac{a}{V^{2}}\)= Dimension of P.
∴ Dimension of a = Dimension of P ×(Dimension of V)²
= [M¹L^-1T^-2][L³]²
∴ Dimension of a =[M¹L⁵T^-2] and Dimension of b = Dimension of V = [L³]
or Dimension of b = [M⁰L³T⁰].

Question 4.
Find the fundamental unit of force and work using dimensional equation.
Answer:
(1) Force = Mass × Acceleration

(2) Work Force Displacement
= Mass x Acceleration x Displacement

∴ Dimensional formula of work = [ML²T^-2]
SI unit = kg-metre²/sec²
C.G.S. unit = g-cm²/sec².

Question 5.
What are the limitations of dimensional equations?
Explain the limitations of dimensional analysis.
Answer:
Limitations :

• The dimensional formulae of only those quantities can be ob- :d which can be expressed in terms of fundamental quantities.
• It is not applicable to trigonometrical, exponential or logarithmic functions.
• The value of constants cannot be determined by this system.
• If an equation has a constant having dimensions e.g., G, Then relation cannot be blished.

Question 6.
The periodic time of a simple pendulum T, depends upon its effective length (l) acceleration due to gravity (g). Derive the formula for time-period by dimensional
Or
Find out an expression for periodic time of a simple pendulum using dimensional sis.
Answer:
Let the formula for periodic time (T) be,
T ∝ l^a g^b
T = K. l^a g^b
Putting the dimensions of periodic time (7), effective length (l) and acceleration due to gravity in eqn. (1).
[M⁰L⁰T] = [L]^a x [LT^-2]^b .
or
[M⁰L⁰T] = [M⁰L^a+bT^2b]
By the principle of homogeneity, comparing the powers of length and time, we get
a + b = 0 …(2)
and – 2b = 1
⇒ b = – \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Putting in eqn. (2), we get
a- \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 0
∴ a = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Putting the values of a and b in eqn. (1), we get
T = kl^1/2g^-1/2
or

This is the required formula.

Question 7.
What are the different type of errors in measurement? Explain.
Answer:
Random error :
If an observer measures a physical quantity and each time he finds different readings, then such an error is called random error.
Example : Suppose the diameter of a wire is determined by a screw gauge and each time the reading is different because the wire is not uniform.
To remove this error, so many readings are taken and then mean is calculated.
If a physical quantity is measured n times and its readings are a₁,a₂, a₃ …..a_n

Absolute error :
The difference between the observed value and actual value of a physical quantity is called absolute error. It is always positive.
The absolute error of a quantity x is denoted by | Δx |
Let the observed values of a physical quantity are x₁,x₂, x₃ …..x_nand the average value is x.

Relative error :
The ratio of absolute error and actual value is called relative error.
∴ Relative error = \(\frac{\text { Average absolute error }}{\text { Actual value }}\)
= \(\frac{\text { Actual value }-\text { Measured value }}{\text { Actual value }}\)
or

Percentage error: When the relative error is expressed in percentage, then it is called percentage error.
∴ Percentage error = \(\frac{\text { Average absolute error }}{\text { Actual value }}\) ×100

Question 8.
What do you understand by significant figure ? How do you find significant figure of a quantity?
Answer:
The number of digits used to express accurately, the measured value of a physical quantity is called significant figure.

Counting of significant figures :

• By changing the decimal point, the number of significant figures does not change.
  For example; 1.234, 12.34 and 123.4 the number of significant figure is 4.
• All the zeros between two non-zero numbers are significant.
  For example; Significant figures in 3100-05 is 6.
• The zeros before the first non-zero digit are ignored while all the zeros to the right are counted.
  For example; Significant figure in 0 007 is 1 and that of 6-320 is 4,
• The zeros in a whole number at the end are not counted.
  For example; Significant figure in 6320 is 3 and in 13200 is 3.
• The significant figure does not change with the change of units i.e.,
  0.0432m = 4.32 cm, both have the significant figure 3.
• When a number is expressed in the power of 10, then the power is not counted, i.e., 10.52 × 10⁵ has significant figure 4.

Question 4.
The length, breadth and thickness of a rectangular sheet of metal are 4.234m, l-005m and 2.01cm respectively. Give the area and volume of the sheet to correct significant figures.
Solution:
Here, Length, l = 4.234m
Breadth, b = 1.005m
Thickness, h = 2.01cm = 0 0201m
Area of the sheet = 2(lb + bh + hl)
= 2(4.234 × 1.005 + 1.005 × 0.0201 + 0.0201 × 4.234)
= 8.7209468m²
As the least number of significant figures in thickness is 3,
∴ Area = 8.72m²
Volume = l × b × h
= 4.234 × 1.005 × 0.0201m³
= 0-0855m³

Question 5.
A physical quantity P is related to four observables a, b, c and d as follows :

The percentage errors of measurement in a, b, c and d are 1%, 3%, 4% and 2% respectively. What is the percentage error in the quantity P ? If the value of P calcu-lated using the above relation turns out to be 3.763, to what value should you round off the result?
Solution:

The calculation of error clearly shows that the number of significant figures is 2, so the result of P may be rounded off to two significant digits i.e.,
P = 3.763 = 3.8.

Question 6.
The percentage errors in the measurement of length and mass are 2% and 5% respectively. What will be the percentage error in the measurement of density of a cube?
Solution:

Question 7.
Given that the period T of oscillation of a gas bubble from an explosion under water depends on P, d and E, where the symbols are pressure, density and total energy of explosion. Find dimensionally a relation for T.
Solution:
Let T∝P^ad^bE^c
or T =kPsup>ad^bE^c, (where His a dimensionless constant) …(1)
Writing dimensional formula of each physical quantity on both sides of eqn. (1), we
[M⁰L⁰T¹] = [ML^-1T^-2 ]^a [ML^-3 ]^b [ML²T^-2 ]^c
= [M^a+b+c][L^-a-3b+2c][T^-2a-2c]
Comparing power of,
M, 0 = a + b + c ……(2)
L, 0 = – a – 3b + 2c ……(3)
T, 1 = -2a – 2c
or a + c = –\(\frac{1}{2}\)
∴ From eqns. (2) and (4), we get
b = – (a + c)
= \(-\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)\) = \(-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\)
Putting the value of b in eqn. (3),
– a + 2c = 3b
=> -a + 2c =3 x \(\frac{1}{2}\)= \(\frac{3}{2}\)
Adding eqns. (4) and (5),

Question 8.
An object of mass ‘m’ is executing simple harmonic motion suspended at one end of a spring. If its spring constant is K and time-period is T, then prove with the help of dimensional method that equation T=2π\(\frac{m}{\mathbf{K}}\) incorrect. Also find its correct
equation.
Solution:
Given, T = 2π\(\frac{m}{\mathbf{K}}\)
Writing dimensional formula of the above equation
[T] = \(\frac{[\mathrm{M}]}{\left[\mathrm{MT}^{-2}\right]}\) = [T²]
Since, the dimension of T on both sides are not same, therefore the given equation is incorrect.
Let us assume that time-period T, a^th power of mass (m) and b^th power of spring constant (K), then
T∝m^aK^b
or T = K.m^aK^b
Let K = 2π
∴ T = 2πm^aK^b
or [T] = 2π[M]^a [MT^-2]^b
= [M] ^(a+b)[T]^-2b
Comparing both sides, we get
a + b = 0
and -2b = 1
or b = –\(\frac{1}{2}\)
∴ a+ \(-\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)\)=0
or
a = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Putting the values of a and b in the above equation,
T = 2πm\(\frac{1}{2}\). K-\(\frac{1}{2}\)

This is the correct form of the equation.

Question 9.
Equation of a particle of velocity (v) and time (t) is given by v = A + Bt +\(\frac{C}{D+t}\) find out the dimension of A, B, C and D.
Solution:
Each form of R.H.S. must have dimension of v.
∴ Dimensional formula of A = Dimensional formula of velocity
v = [LT^-1].
Dimensional formula of B.t = Dimensional formula of v = [LT^-1]
∴ Dimensional formula of B =\(\frac{\left[\mathrm{LT}^{-1}\right]}{[\mathrm{T}]}\) [LT^-2]
∴Dimensional formula off D = Dimensional formula off t = [T].
Dimensional formula of\(\frac{C}{D+t}\) = Dimensional formula of v= [LT^-1]
and Dimensional formula of C = [LT^-1] x [Dimensions of D + t] – [L¹].

Question 10.
Assuming energy E, length L and time T as the fundamental unit, what would be dimensions of mass ? If energy E is being replaced by force F then what would be the dimensions of mass ?
Solution:

∴ Dimensions of mass will be = [E¹L^-2T²].
Replacing energy E by force F, we get
Force F = Mass x Acceleration

Question 11.
If m and c represent mass and velocity, then find with the help of dimensional method the quantity mc² is equivalent to which form?
Solution:
Dimensions of mc² – Dimensions of mass x (Dimensions of velocity)²
= M[LT^-1]²
= [M¹L²T^-2 ] = Dimensions of energy.

Question 12.
The centripetal force acting on a particle revolving in a circular path depends upon velocity of the particle v and radius of circle (r). Using dimensional method establish the formula for the centripetal acceleration (a).
Solution:
According to given question
a ∝ v^a r^b
or a = kv^a r^b …(1)
Writing the dimensional formula for the quantities
[M⁰LT^-2] = [M⁰LT⁰]^b
=[M⁰L^a+bT^-a]
Comparing the powers of M, L and T both sides,
a + b= 1 …(2)
and – a = -2 or a = 2
Putting the value of a in eqn. (2), we get
2 + b=1
or b = 1 – 2 = – 1
Hence, from eqn. (1), we get
a = k.v² r^-1 or a = \(\frac{k v^{2}}{r}\)
If k= 1, then a= \(\frac{v^{2}}{r}\)

Question 13.
Diameter of a sphere is 2.348 cm. Find out volume and surface area of it up to required significant number.
Solution:
Given,
2R = 2.348 cm
∴ R= 1.174 cm
Volume of sphere V =\(\frac{4}{3}\)πR³ = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × 3.14 ×(1.174)³
or
V = 6.774 cm³
and Surface area of sphere S = 4πR²
=4 × 3.14 × (1.174)²
= 17.311 = 17.31cm².
