Which of the following quantity represents the dimensions of momentum?

  1. A Impulse
  2. B Pressure
  3. C Viscosity
  4. D Power
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Impulse

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The dimension of momentum \(p\) is given by \(p = mv\), where \(m\) is mass (\(M\)) and \(v\) is velocity (\(LT^{-1}\)). Thus, the dimensions of momentum are \([MLT^{-1}]\). Impulse \(J\) is defined as the change in momentum, \(J = \Delta p = F \Delta t\). The dimensions of…
