  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A metal sample carrying a current along XX-axis with density JxJ_{x} is subjected to a magnetic field BzB_{z} (along zz-axis). The electric field EyE_{y} developed along YY-axis is directly proportional to JxJ_{x} as well as BzB_{z}. The constant of proportionality has SISI unit.
    Solution
    Given: EyαJxE_{y} \alpha J_{x}  and EyαBZE_{y} \alpha B_{Z}
    EyαJxBZE_{y} \alpha J_{x}B_{Z}
    Ey=KJxBZ\Rightarrow E_{y}=KJ_{x}B_{Z} (Where K = constant of proportionality)
    By Dimensional analysis we have; 
    [Ey]=[KJxBZ]\left [ E_{y} \right ] = [KJ_{x}B_{Z}]
    [K]=[Ey][JxBZ]=[]M1L1T3A1][L2AA][M1T2A1]\Rightarrow \left [ K \right ] = \dfrac{\left [ E_{y} \right ]}{\left [ J_{x}B_{Z} \right ]}=\dfrac{[]M^{1}L^{1}T^{3}A^{-1}]}{[L^{-2}A^{A}][M^{1}T^{-2}A^{-1}]}
    [K]=[L3][A1T1]\Rightarrow [K]=\dfrac{[L^{3}]}{[A^{1}T^{1}]}\rightarrow Dimensional formual of K 
    So, S.I unit of K will be : m3As \dfrac{m^{3}}{As}
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Give the MKS units for the following quantities.
    Power of lens.
    Solution
    The dioptre is the unit of measure for the refractive power of a lens. The power of a lens is defined as the reciprocal of its focal length in meters, or D=1fD = \dfrac 1f, where DD is the power in diopters and ff is the focal length in meters.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    In the formula X=3YZ2X=3YZ^2, X and Z have dimensions of capacitance and magnetic induction respectively. The dimensions of Y in MKSQ system are ________.
    Solution
    Given,

    X=3YZ2X=3YZ^2

    Then,

    Y=X3Z2Y=\dfrac{X}{3Z^2}

    [X]=[C]=[M1L2T2Q2][X]=[C]=[M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2Q^2]

    [Z]=[B]=[MT1Q1][Z]=[B]=[MT^{-1}Q^{-1}]

    Then,

    [Y]=[X][3Z2][Y]=\dfrac{[X]}{[3Z^2]}

    =[M1L2T2Q2][MT1Q1]2=[M3L2T4Q4]=\dfrac{[M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2Q^2]}{[MT^{-1}Q^{-1}]^2}=[M^{-3}L^{-2}T^4Q^4]

    That is,

    3-3 in mass, 2-2 in length, 44 in time and 44 in charge.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Planck's constant has the dimensions ___________.
    Solution
    Planck's constant, symbolized h, relates the energy in one quantum (photon) of electromagnetic radiation to the frequency of that radiation.

    h=Ev=[ML2T2][T1]=[ML2T1]h=\dfrac Ev=\dfrac{[ML^2T^{-2}]}{[T^{-1}]}=[ML^2T^{-1}]
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The physical quantities not having same dimensions are:
    Solution
    The torque and the work both have the same dimensions because they are given as the product of force and the distance.

    [Momentum]=[MLT1][Momentum] = [MLT^{-1}]
    [h]=Ev=ML2T2T=[ML2T1][h] = \dfrac {E}{v} = ML^{2}T^{-2}T = [ML^{2}T^{-1}].

    On the other hand, the young's modulus is the ratio of stress and strain. The strain is a dimensionless quantity. Therefore, the unit of stress and young's modulus will be the same.

    The unit of speed is m/sm/s and it has the dimension of [LT1][LT^{-1}].
    The speed of light is given by:
    c=1μ0ϵ0c=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0\epsilon_0}}
    Therefore, both will have the same dimensions.

    So, option (B)(B) is correct.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    If yy represents pressure and xx represents velocity  gradient, then the dimensions of d2ydx  2\dfrac { { d }^{ 2 }y }{ d{ x  }^{ 2 } } are
    Solution
    Dimensions of d2ydx2\dfrac { { d }^{ 2 }y }{ d{ x }^{ 2 } }   = dimension of yx2\dfrac { y }{ { x }^{ 2 } }
    Dimension of y ML1T2M{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 }
    Dimension of x T1{ T }^{ -1 }
    d2ydx2=ML1T2(T1) 2=ML1T0\dfrac { { d }^{ 2 }y }{ d{ x }^{ 2 } } \quad =\dfrac { M{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 } }{ { \left( { T }^{ -1 } \right)  }^{ 2 } } \\ =M{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ 0 }
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Two particles X and Y having equal charges, after being accelerated through the same potential difference, enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describe circular paths of radii R1R_1and R2R_2, respectively. The ratio of the masses of  X to that of Y is
    Solution
    We know,

    R=2mqVqBR=\dfrac{\sqrt{2mqV}}{qB}

    As q,B,V are same

    RmR\propto \sqrt m

    R1R2=m1m2\dfrac{R_1}{R_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}}

    m1m2=(R1)2(R2)2\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{(R_1)^2}{(R_2)^2}

    Option  C\textbf  C is the correct answer.


  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    The physical quantities which do not have same dimensions are
    Solution
    The energy and torque have the same dimensions as both can be represented as the product of force and distance.

    The pressure and stress are the quantities that have the same dimensions. They both are defined as force per unit area.

    The work and energy are the quantities that have the same dimensions. They are the product of force and distance.

    The young's modulus is defined as the ratio of stress and strain. The strain is a dimensionless quantity. So, Young's modulus will have the same unit as of stress.
    Strain =changeindimensionorginaldimension\dfrac { change\quad in\quad dimension }{ orginal\quad dimension }  
    =M0L0T0={ M }^{ 0 }{ L }^{ 0 }{ T }^{ 0 }

    Youngs  Modulus =ML1T2={ M }{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 }

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    The velocity of a body moving viscous medium is given by V=AB[1et/B]V=\dfrac { A }{ B } [1-{ e }^{ { -t }/{ B } }] where tt is time, AA and BB are constants. Then the dimensional formula of AA is:
    Solution
    In  etBe^\frac{-t}{B} is the exponential term. So, the tB\dfrac{t}{B} is  constant.
    So, B has the dimensions as:
    B=[T]B=[T]

    On the other hand, the dimension of AB\dfrac AB will be the same as that of the velocity.
    AB\dfrac{A}{B} has dimensions as velocity

    [LT1]=a[T][LT^{-1}]=\dfrac{a}{[T]}

    dimensional formula of A is M0L1T0M^0L^1 T^0
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The equation of the state of some gases can be expressed as (P+aV2=RθV)(P + \dfrac{a}{V^2} = \dfrac{R\theta}{V}), where P is the pressure. V the volume, θ\theta the absolute temperature and a and b are constant. The dimensional formula of a is  
    Solution
    Dimensional formula of Pressure is [M1L1T2][M^{1} L^{-1} T^{-2}]
    Dimensional formula of Volume is [M0L3T0][M^{0} L^{3} T^{0}]

    From the given equation:
    P+aV2=RθVP+\dfrac{a}{V^2}=\dfrac{R\theta}{V}

    Dimensional formula of aV2\dfrac{a}{V^{2}} is same as pressure.
    aL6=[M1L1T2]\dfrac{a}{L^6}=[M^1L^{-1}T^{-2}]

    Therefore dimensional formula of a is [M1L5T2][M^{1} L^{5} T^{-2}]
