Which of the following physical quantities has the SI unit ?
Options
- AThermal conductivity
- BSpecific heat capacity
- CBoltzmann constant
- DStefan-Boltzmann constant
Correct answer
A. Thermal conductivity
Step-by-step solution
Let us express the given unit in terms of familiar derived SI units:
Given unit:
We know that the unit of energy (Joule, ) is .
Multiplying and dividing the given unit by , we can group the terms as follows:
Substituting for :
Since the rate of energy transfer () is Watt (), the unit simplifies to:
This is the standard SI unit for thermal conductivity, which can be verified from the heat conduction equation .
Answer: Thermal conductivity
