    A calorie is a unit of heat or energy and it equals about 4.2 J where 1J = 1 kg m2 sñ2. Suppose we employ a system of units in which the unit of mass equals αkg, the unit of length equals β m, the unit of time is γ s. Show that a calorie has a magnitude 4.2  in terms of the new units. 

    We know that dimensional formula of heat energy is open square brackets straight M to the power of 1 straight L squared straight T to the power of negative 2 end exponent close square brackets

    It is given that,

    1 cal = 4.2J 

    In SI system,   

    M1 = 1 kg, L1 = 1 m,  T1 = 1 s 

    In new system of units, 

    straight M subscript 2 equals straight alpha space kg comma space straight L subscript 2 equals straight beta space straight m comma space straight T subscript 2 equals straight gamma space straight s

    We  know,
