हिन्दीConsider a system of base units where the speed of light in vacuum \( c \) is fixed to \( 299792458 \text{ ms}^{-1} \). If a new unit system defines the time second in terms of the caesium hyper-fine transition frequency \( \Delta \nu_{cs} \), which of the following physical constants is explicitly used in the modern SI definition of the metre?
Correct answer · Option 4
Speed of light \( c \)
Explanation
The metre is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the speed of light in vacuum c to be \( 299792458 \text{ ms}^{-1} \).
