Match List I with List II and select the answer using the code given below the Lists : List I (Physical Quantity) A. Temperature B. Weight C. Mass D. Pressure List II (SI Unit) 1. Kelvin 2. Kilogram 3. Pascal 4. Newton Code :
Explanation
The matching of physical quantities to their SI units is as follows: Temperature is measured in Kelvin (K), which is one of the seven SI base units [1]. Weight, being the force of gravity acting on an object, is measured in Newtons (N) [5]. Mass, representing the amount of material in an object, has the SI base unit of kilogram (kg) [3]. Pressure is defined as force per unit area, and its SI unit is the Pascal (Pa), which is equivalent to one Newton per square meter [4]. Therefore, the correct sequence for A-B-C-D is 1 (Kelvin), 4 (Newton), 2 (Kilogram), and 3 (Pascal). This corresponds to Option 3. While mass remains constant regardless of location, weight varies with gravitational strength, though both are fundamental concepts in physical measurement systems [2].
