1.** Reynolds number and coefficient of friction are dimensionless quantities. Curie is the number of atoms decaying
per unit time and frequency is the number of oscillations per unit time. Latent heat and gravitational potential
both have the same dimension corresponding to energy per unit mass.

5. Rule : I. We know all non zero digits are significant.
Rule : II. If zero is between two non-zero digits this is also significant.
Rule : III. If zero left to the non-zero digit they are non-significant.
