Problem
A heater delivers a power of 500 W when measured in SI units. In a hypothetical system, the base units are defined such that 1 mass unit = 2 kg, 1 length unit = 0.5 m, and 1 time unit = 3 s. What will be the numerical value of the same power in this new system?
(a) 13500
(b) 37
(c) 27000
(d) 9000
