Details
AMPERE
Unit of electric current. Equal to the flow of 6.241 x 1018 electrons per second.
CALORY
Calory is the unit of heat. It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature
or one gram of water through 10 C
Knot is a measure to know the speed of a ship.
The practical unit of power - the power of an agent which can work at the rate of
550 foot-pounds per second or 33,000 foot-pounds per minute
1 HP=746 watts.
Unit of power - the rate of work done in joules per second; the energy expended per
second by an unvarying electric current of 1 ampere.
The unit of potential difference. It is that much potential difference which when
applied to the ends of an electrical conductor of resistance one ohm, the amount of
energy consumed in the circuit in one second is one Joule (=107 ergs).
The pressure is expressed in pounds weight per sq cm. The pressure of the
atmosphere is expressed in millibars.
One millibar = 1 dyne per sq cm. If the pressure is very high, they are expressed in
multiples of atmospheric pressure.
1 atmosphere is a pressure exerted by a column of mercury 76 cm high at sea level
Joule is the unit of work or energy. It is the energy consumed in one second in an
electrical circuit through which a current energy of one ampere is flowing against a

The unit of wavelength of light is Angstrom
1 Angstrom = 10-8 cm.
A unit of distance used in navigation - one minute of longitude measured along the
Equator. A Nautical Mile is approximately equal to 6, 080 feet.
ATOMIC
WEIGHT
The weight of an atom of hydrogen is taken as the standard; the respective weights
of the atoms of all other substances are expressed in terms of hydrogen

Important of Laws in Science
Laws
Explanation
ARCHIMEDES PRINCIPLE
When a body is immersed either wholly or partially in a fluid at rest, the
apparent loss of weight suffered by it is equal to the weight of the fluid
displaced by it.
AVOGADRO's LAW
Equal volumes of all gases under the same conditions of temperature
and pressure contain equal number of molecules.
CENTRE OF GRAVITY
A body will remain at rest only if the vertical line through the centres of
gravity passes through the base of support of the body
BOILING POINT
It increases with the increase of pressure. The presence of impurities
also raises the boiling point of a liquid
COULOMB'S LAW
The force between the two electric charges reduces to a quarter of its
former value when the distance between them is doubled
FARADAY'S LAWS OF The amount of chemical change during electrolysis is proportional to
ELECTROLYSIS
the charge passed.
The masses of substances liberated or deposited by the same quantity
of electric charge are proportional to their chemical equivalents
MASS
ENERGY
EQUATION
E = mc2
where
E = quantity of energy released from the annihilation of
matter of mass 'm'
c = velocity of light
BLACK BODY RADIATION Black body absorbs heat or radiates heat more quickly than any other
body.
LAW OF CONSERVATION In chemical changes, matter is neither created nor destroyed.
OF MATTER
The sum total of the masses of all the products of a chemical change is
exactly equal to the sum total of the substances from which these
products have been formed.
Page 66

LAWS
THERMODYNAMICS
OF The amount of heat given to a system is equal to the sum of the
increase in the internal energy of the system and the external work
done.
It is impossible to construct a continuous self-acting machine that can
pump heat energy from a body at lower temperature to a body at
higher temperature.
NEWTON'S UNIVERSAL Everybody in the universe attracts every other body with a force,
LAW OF GRAVITATION
directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.
NEWTON'S LAWS OF First Law (Law of Inertia) Everybody continues in its state of rest or of
MOTION
uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that
state by a force
Second Law The rate of change of momentum of a moving body is
proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the
force.
Third Law For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
LENZ'S LAW
When an electric current is induced by a change in magnetic field, the
induced current is always in such a direction that its magnetic field
opposes the change of field which causes the induction
OHM'S LAW
The amount of current flowing in an electric circuit is governed by the
voltage of the battery on dynamo which powers it. In other words, the
current through a conductor is directly proportional the potential
difference across the conductor and inversely proportional to its
resistance.
