Question
Derive the relation between newton and dyne.
Advertisements
Solution
Relation between newton and dyne:
1 N = 1 kg × ms−2 = 1000 g × 100 cm s−2
1 N = 100000 g cm s−2
1 N = 105 g cm s−2
1 N = 105 ............[∴ 1 dyne = 1 g cm s−2]

A plumb bob is hung from the ceiling of a train compartment. If the train moves with an acceleration 'a' along a straight horizontal track , the string supporting the bob makes an angle tan−1 (a/g) with the normal to the ceiling. Suppose the train moves on an inclined straight track with uniform velocity. If the angle of incline is tan−1 (a/g), the string again makes the same angle with the normal to the ceiling. Can a person sitting inside the compartment tell by looking at the plumb line whether the train is accelerating on a horizontal straight track or moving on an incline? If yes, how? If not, then suggest a method to do so.

(b) cannot be an inertial frame because the earth is revolving around the sun
(c) is an inertial frame because Newton's laws are applicable in this frame
(d) cannot be an inertial frame because the earth is rotating about its axis.
