C=CENTIMETER G= GRAM S = SECOND

M=METER K = KILOGRAM S = SECOND

1 METER=100 CM and 1Kg (kilogram) = 1000 gram

Density = mass/volume , where : volume = L^3 (in its demtional form)

Lets calculate its dimentions

Density = [M]/[L]^3 = [M]^1*[L]^(-3)

So, we would eliminate the effect of time , as it does not include the time in dementions . And If the dimentions have time then : Time does not have any effect in MKS AND CGS system because both have same units of time (which is second)

Now CGS unit, lets take mass in gram(g) , and length(L) in centimeter (cm)

Density = M*(L)^(-3) = g(cm)^(-3) ---------------(1)

Now in MKS unit ,lets take mass in kilogram(Kg) , and length(L) in meter (m)

Density = M*(L)^(-3) = kg(m)^(-3) ---------------(2)

Now if you want to convert CGS INTO MKS , what you have to do , just convert gram and centimeter into kilogram and meter . (the power will do there work accordingly )

Now what you have now ?

You have equation one for now . (because you want to convert equation 1 in the form of equation 2 )

DENSITY = g(cm)^(-3) = {kg/1000}(m/100)^(-3) = (kg/1000) * (100/cm)^(3)

because ,

1gram = 1kg/1000

1cm=m/100 , so

1cm^(3) =(m/100)^(3) so we could have :::1(cm)^(-3) = (m/100)^(-3)

DENSITY = g(cm)^(-3) = (kg/1000) * (100/m)^(3)

= (100)(100)(100)(kg)/(1000)m^3 = 1000kg/m^3

g(cm)^(-3) = 1000kg/m^3

You have cgs unit then divide by 1000 because

kg/m^3 = g/1000(cm)^(3)

So if you want to convert density in CGS into MKS then

Multiply the given cgs into 1000, because cgs can be converted in kgs only by multiplying that number by 1000 , as explained above (as cgs units are used , and at last 1000 is multiplied , and we get kgs unit )

as

1 (g / (cm^3)) = 1000 kg / (m^3

When is cm3 the perferred unit to use for volume?

When you are using the "cgs" system (centimeters gram seconds). But you might prefer cubic miles or cubic metres etc if you were dealing with large things.


Is cc equal to cm cube?

Yes. 'cc' is the abbreviation for "cubic centimeter", often written as 'cm3'. This is the unit of volume in the CGS system. It's the volume of a cube measuring 1 centimeter on its side.


How many metric units are in 1000 meters?

There is not a single metric unit of length. 1000 metres is 1000 unit of the MKS (metre-kilogram-second) basis of length or 100,000 of the CGS (centimetre-gram-second) basis.


What is reciprocal of inductance?

The quantity of Electrical reluctance (unit = yrnehs H-1 or per henry) was once put forward as the reciprocal of inductance back in the days of the cgs system of units, but the idea never really caught on. While it is sometimes necessary to divide by inductance, there was really no need for a separate named reciprocal quantity or unit.The term reluctance more often referred to magnetic reluctance which saw more use, and was NOT the same as the reciprocal of inductance. Magnetic reluctance is the recipriprocal of permeance, and is normally expressed in ampere-turns/weber or turns/henry (also abampere/abweber or turns/abhenry specifically as electromangnetic units). Magnetic reluctance was a part of the emu(Electromagnetic Units) division of the old cgs system, and was not carried over into the mks system (which replaced cgs) or SI (which is the international standard of today).

How do you convert kilogram into CGS unit?

To convert kilograms (kg) to the CGS unit system, you would need to use the conversion factor 1 kg = 1000 grams and then convert from grams to CGS units. In the CGS system, 1 gram = 1000 milligrams = 100 centigrams = 10^6 micrograms. So, if you have a mass in kilograms, you would need to multiply by 10^6 to convert to centigrams in the CGS system.


How do you convert density of water in CGS unit to SI unit?

To convert the density of water from CGS (g/cm^3) to SI (kg/m^3), you can use the conversion factor 1 g/cm^3 = 1000 kg/m^3. Simply multiply the density in CGS units by 1000 to get the density in SI units.

What is the unit of parachor in cgs system?

The unit of parachor in the cgs (centimeter-gram-second) system is typically given in cubic centimeters to the power of 1.5 per dyne to the power of 1/2 (cm^3/2·dyne^-1/2). So, the unit of parachor in the cgs system can be expressed as: Parachor unit = cm 3 / 2 ⋅ dyne − 1 / 2 Parachor unit=cm 3/2 ⋅dyne −1/2
