CGS is NOT widely used. It was in the past. The only system of measurement that is widely used today is the SI, which is a variety of MKS.

What are units of displacement in mks cgs si?

In the MKS (Meter-Kilogram-Second) system, the unit of displacement is the meter (m). In the CGS (Centimeter-Gram-Second) system, the unit of displacement is the centimeter (cm). In the SI (International System of Units), which is an extension of the MKS system, the unit of displacement remains the meter (m). Thus, the units of displacement across these systems are meters in MKS and SI, and centimeters in CGS.


What is momentum and write CGS and MKS units of momentum?

Momentum is a measure of an object's motion and is calculated as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. In CGS units, momentum is measured in g cm/s, while in MKS units, momentum is measured in kg m/s.


What are the unit of force in CGS and MKS systems?

The centimetre-gram-second system (CGS) is a system of physical units. It is always the same for mechanical units, but there are several variants of electric additions. It was replaced by the MKS, or metre-kilogram-second system, which in turn was replaced by the International System of Units (SI), which has the three base units of MKS plus the ampere, mole, candela and kelvin. from Arun
