Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option D: All of these
Concept:

Magnetic field strength (or magnetic flux density) has the SI unit Tesla (\( \text{T} \)). It can be expressed in various derived SI units and relates to the CGS unit (Gauss).

Formula:

$$ \text{B} = \frac{\Phi}{A} = \frac{F}{IL} $$

Solution:

  • Evaluate Option C: \( \text{Tesla} = \frac{\text{Weber}}{\text{m}^2} \). This is correct.


  • Evaluate Option A: Using \( B = \frac{F}{IL} \), \( 1 \ \text{T} = \frac{\text{N}}{\text{A \cdot m}} = \text{N m}^{-1} \text{A}^{-1} \). Since \( 1 \ \text{T} = 1 \ \text{wb m}^{-2} \), this is also correct.


  • Evaluate Option B: The conversion factor between SI (Tesla) and CGS (Gauss) is exactly \( 1 \ \text{T} = 10^4 \ \text{G} \). This is correct.


  • Since all individual statements are correct, the answer is "All of these".


Why other options are incorrect:

No single option (A, B, or C) is incorrect; therefore, selecting only one of them would be incomplete.

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
