1. Melson units
2. Beaufort Scale
3. Dobson units
4. Sieverts
Key Points
Stratosphere is the layer of earth that contains ozone gas.
The Dobson Unit is used to measure the thickness of Stratospheric Ozone layer.
DU is a unit of measurement of the amount of a trace gas in a vertical column through the
Earth's atmosphere.
One Dobson Unit is the number of molecules of Ozone that would be required to create a layer
of pure ozone 0.01 millimetres thick at a temperature of 0 degrees celsius and a pressure of 1
atmosphere.
Thus, we can say that Dobson unit is used to measure the thickness of Stratospheric Ozone layer.
Additional Information
Beaufort Scale is an empirical measure that relates wind speed to observed conditions at sea
or land.
Sieverts is a unit intended to represent stochastic health risk of ionizing radiation.

approximately 6 trillion miles.
Light moves at a velocity of about 300,000 kilometres (km) each second.
1 light-year = 9.46 trillion kilometers per year.

Option 1 : joule
Important Points
The other common units for heat are-
BTU (Btu) - British Thermal Unit - also known as a "heat unit" in the United States.
Calorie: The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water 1oC.
Erg is a unit of energy.
It equal to the force of one dyne over a distance of one centimeter.
1 erg = 10-7 joule.
Watt is a unit (SI) of power.
It is equal to one joule of work performed per second.
1 horsepower = 746 watt
Key Points
1 joule = 0.14 calorie = 9.478 x 10-4 Btu.
4.184 joule of heat energy (or one calorie) is required to raise the temperature of a unit weight
(1 g) of water from 0oC to 1oC, or from 32oF to 33.8oF.

1. Degree Fahrenheit
2. Candela
3. Kelvin
4. Degree Celsius
Option 3 : Kelvin
Kelvin is the base unit of temperature in the SI system (International System of Units). Kelvin
unit's abbreviation is K (no degree or degree sign).
Additional Information
The "degree Celsius" has been the only SI unit whose full unit name contains an uppercase
letter since 1967, when the SI base unit for temperature became the kelvin, replacing the
capitalized term degrees Kelvin.
The plural form is "degrees Celsius".
The Kelvin scale is widely accepted or used in the field of science and engineering.
However, in most parts of the world, Celsius or Fahrenheit scale is used for measuring
temperature

1. force
2. thrust
3. momentum
4. pressure
Option 4 : pressure
Key Points
The International System of Units (SI) is the basis of the modern metric system. All SI units
can be derived from the seven fundamental SI units.
Pressure, in the physical sciences, is the perpendicular force per unit area, or the stress
at a point within a confined fluid.
Pressure is the force per unit perpendicular area over which the force is applied, p = F/A.
Pressure is defined as force applied per unit area. Hence, its SI unit is N/m2 or Pascal
here, 1 Pascal = 1 N/m2.
Additional Information
Pressure is classified into three types, they are:
Absolute pressure.
Gauge pressure.
Differential pressure.
Sealed pressure or vacuum pressure.

Option 2 : [M1L2T-1]
Concept:
the dimensional formula is defined as the expression of the physical quantity in terms of
mass, length, and time.
The turning momentum of the particle about the axis of rotation is called the angular
momentum of the particle. Mathematically angular momentum can be written as
Either Angular momentum is the rotational analogue of linear momentum. The angular
momentum of an object can also be connected to the angular velocity ω of the object via the
moment of inertia I.
∴L=Ixω=rxp
Explanation:
Now,
L = [L] × [MLT-1]
∴ L = [ML2T-1]
These are some of the useful dimensions of the basic physical quantity, Here M, L, T & I represent
Mass, Length, Time and Current respectively.
