Problem

In a newly proposed system, the fundamental units are defined as follows: • 11 new mass unit =0.50 kg=0.50\,\text{kg} • 11 new length unit =20 cm=20\,\text{cm} • 11 new time unit =0.010 s=0.010\,\text{s} A body experiences a force of 10 N10\,\text{N} in the SI system. (i) Derive the factor by which the numerical value of force will be multiplied when converting from SI units to the new units. (ii) Hence, find the numerical value of the same force expressed in the new system of units.
