The normal duration of an I.Sc. Physics practical period in Indian colleges is 100 minutes. Determine this period in microcenturies, given that 1 microcentury = 10⁻⁶ 100 years .

Step-by-step solution

1 microcentury = 10⁻⁶ 100 years = 10⁻⁴ years 1 year = 365 days = 365 24 60 minutes = 525600 minutes 1 microcentury = 10⁻⁴ 525600 minutes = 52.56 minutes Duration of the period = 100 minutes Duration in microcenturies = 100 52.56 1.9 microcenturies
