  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The dimensional formula for magnetic flux is
    Solution
    Formula for magnetic flux will be B×AB \times A
    BB =magnetic field. Dimensions will be [MT2I1][MT^{-2}I^{-1}]
    AA =Area. Dimensions will be [L2][L^2]
    Dimension for magnetic flux will be  [ML2T2I1][ML^2T^{-2}I^{-1}]
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Which one of the following has the dimensions of pressure?
    Solution
    Dimension of pressure is given as FA=maA=M.LT2L2=ML1T2\displaystyle \frac{|F|}{|A|}=\frac{|ma|}{|A|}=\frac{M.L{T}^{-2}}{{L}^{2}}=M{L}^{-1}{T}^{-2}
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The dimensions of voltage in terms of mass (M)(M), length (L)(L) and time (T)(T) and ampere (A)(A) are
    Solution
    Voltage(V) is a representation of the electric potential energy(W) per unit charge(Q). 
    So, [V]=[WQ]=[ML2T2][AT]=[ML2A1T3][V]=\left [\dfrac {W}{Q}\right ]=\dfrac {[ML^2T^{-2}]}{[AT]}=[ML^2A^{-1}T^{-3}]
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Consider the following pairs of quantities:
    1. Young's modulus; pressure
    2. Torque; energy
    3. Linear momentum; work
    4. Solar day; light year
    In which cases are the dimensions, within a pair, same?
    Solution
    Young's Modulus == Pressure =[M1L1T2] =\left[ { M }^{ 1 }{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 } \right] 
    [Torque] == [Energy] =[M1L2T2] =\left[ { M }^{ 1 }{ L }^{ 2 }{ T }^{ -2 } \right] 
    Linear momentum =[M1L1T1]  =\left[ { M }^{ 1 }{ L }^{ 1 }{ T }^{ -1 } \right] , work =[M1L2T2]  =\left[ { M }^{ 1 }{ L }^{ 2 }{ T }^{ -2 } \right] 
    Solar day =[T] =[T] and Light year=[L] =[L]
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The physical quantity having the dimensions [M1T3L3A2]\displaystyle \left [ M^{-1}T^3L^{-3}A^{2} \right ] is:
    Solution
    Electrical conductivity is given as,
    σ=Gla\sigma = \dfrac{Gl}{a}
    where GG is the conductance i.e.  G=IVG = \dfrac{I}{V}
    So, [σ]=[Gla]=[IlVa]=[ALML2T2L2/AT][\sigma]=[\dfrac{Gl}{a}]=[\dfrac{Il}{Va}]=[\dfrac{AL}{ML^2T^{-2}L^2/AT}]
        [σ]=[M1T3L3A2]\implies [\sigma]=[M^{-1}T^3L^{-3}A^2]
  • Question 6

    Directions For Questions

    The thickness of a metal sheet is measured to be 326mm326 mm. Express its order of magnitude in

    ...view full instructions

    metres
    Solution
    1 mm is 1×103m1\times { 10 }^{ -3 }m.
    So, 326mm=3.26×1×102×103m326mm = 3.26\times1\times { 10 }^{ 2 }\times { 10 }^{ -3 }m.
    Hence its order of magnitude in metres is 101m{ 10 }^{ -1 }m
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    The dimensional formula for Planck's constant and angular momentum are
    Solution
    We know that E=hνE=h\nu
    where dimensions of Energy, E are ML2T2M{L}^{2}{T}^{-2} and dimensions of frequency are inverse of Time Period, i.e. T1{T}^{-1}
    Thus, ML2T2=[h]T1M{L}^{2}{T}^{-2}=[h]{T}^{-1}
    or, [h]=ML2T1[h]=M{L}^{2}{T}^{-1}
    Now, angular momentum, L=IωL=I\omega
    where units of omega are inverse of time (rad/sec, where radian is dimensionless).
    Units of I are ML2M{L}^{2} (because I is of the form kMx2kM{x}^{2})
    Thus [L]=ML2T1[L]=M{L}^{2}{T}^{-1}
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Dimensions of linear impulse are
    Solution
    Linear impulse is given as the change in linear momentum, I=mΔvI=m\Delta v
    Thus, [I]=MLT1[I]=ML{T}^{-1}
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Which of the following is the dimension of the coefficient of friction?
    Solution
    Coefficient of friction is unitless and dimensionless. 
    Thus, [M0L0T0]\displaystyle \left [ M^{0}L^{0}T^{0} \right ] 
    option B is correct.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Dimension of velocity gradient is
    Solution
    Velocity gradient = VelocityDistance\dfrac{Velocity}{Distance}
    Thus [Velocity Gradient]=LT1L=M0L0T1[Velocity \ Gradient]=\dfrac{L{T}^{-1}}{L}={M}^{0}{L}^{0}{T}^{-1}
