(0.1, 1) $1$. We know that $1 \, Pa = 1 \, N/m^2$. Therefore,$0.1 \, Pa = 0.1 \, Nm^{-2}$.
$2$. To convert $Nm^{-2}$ to $\text{dyne} \, cm^{-2}$,we use the conversion factors: $1 \, N = 10^5 \, \text{dyne}$ and $1 \, m^2 = (10^2 \, cm)^2 = 10^4 \, cm^2$.
$3$. Thus,$1 \, Nm^{-2} = \frac{10^5 \, \text{dyne}}{10^4 \, cm^2} = 10 \, \text{dyne} \, cm^{-2}$.
$4$. Therefore,$0.1 \, Nm^{-2} = 0.1 \times 10 \, \text{dyne} \, cm^{-2} = 1 \, \text{dyne} \, cm^{-2}$.
$5$. The final result is $0.1 \, Pa = 0.1 \, Nm^{-2} = 1 \, \text{dyne} \, cm^{-2}$.

The coefficients of thermal expansion of steel and a metal $X$ are respectively $12 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$ and $2 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$. At $40^{\circ}C$,the side of a cube of metal $X$ was measured using a steel vernier callipers. The reading was $100 \, mm$. Assuming that the calibration of the vernier was done at $0^{\circ}C$,then the actual length of the side of the cube at $0^{\circ}C$ will be:

The density of a solid ball is to be determined in an experiment. The diameter of the ball is measured with a screw gauge,whose pitch is $0.5 \ mm$ and there are $50$ divisions on the circular scale. The reading on the main scale is $2.5 \ mm$ and that on the circular scale is $20$ divisions. If the measured mass of the ball has a relative error of $2 \%$,the relative percentage error in the density is (in $\%$)
