Explanation

• The unit of pressure is N/m² (Newton per square meter).
• It is also called Pascal (Pa).
• Pressure means force applied per unit area.
• Higher force or smaller area increases pressure.

Explanation

• An Astronomical Unit (AU) is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.
• It is a standard unit used to measure distances within the Solar System.
• 1 AU = 149,597,870.7 km
• 1 AU = 92,955,807.3 miles
• Light travels 1 AU in: About 8 minutes 20 seconds

Explanation

• The SI unit of sound intensity is watt per square meter (W/m²).
• Sound intensity is the amount of sound power passing through a unit area.
• It shows how strong or weak a sound wave is at a particular point.
• Sound intensity decreases as the distance from the source increases.
• Decibel (dB) is used to measure sound intensity level, not the actual intensity

Explanation

• The SI unit of electric current is Ampere (A).
• Electric current measures the flow of electric charge.
• Defined using the elementary charge (e = 1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹ C).
• Named after: André-Marie Ampère (scientist).
• 1 Ampere = 1 Coulomb per second (1 A = 1 C/s).

Explanation

• Weber (Wb) is the SI unit of magnetic flux.
• One Weber is equal to one volt-second (V·s).
• A magnetic flux density of 1 Weber per square metre (1 Wb/m²) is equal to 1 Tesla (T).
• Magnetic flux measures the total magnetic field passing through a surface.
