Among the following, the highest value of prefix is:

  1. yocto

  2. deca

  3. giga

  4. yotta
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Yocto= $10^{-24}$,             Deca= $10^1$

Griga=$10^9$,                    Yotta=$10^{24}$

Therefore, the highest value of prefix is Yotta  $10^{24}$

The correct option is (D)

Unit of luminous intensity is:

  1. mole

  2. candela

  3. kelvin

  4. ampere
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Luminous intensity is a measure of the wavelength-weighted power emitted by a light source in a particular direction per unit solid angle.


Based on the luminosity function, a standardized model of the sensitivity of the human eye. 
The SI unit of luminous intensity is candela(cd).

So, option ( B ) is correct.

S.I unit for the coefficient of viscosity is equal to?

  1. $Nm^{-1}s$
  2. $Pa s^{-1}$
  3. $Nm^{-2} s$
  4. $Pa s^{-2}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The SI unit for the coefficient of viscosity (dynamic viscosity) is the Pascal-second (Pa s). Since 1 Pascal = 1 N/m^2, the unit is (N/m^2) * s, which is N m^-2 s.
