JEE Advanced · Physics · 2. Units & Dimensions

Let us consider a system of units in which mass and angular momentum are dimensionless. If length has dimension of L, which of the following statement (s) is/are correct?

  1. A The dimension of power is L-5
  2. B The dimension of force is L-3
  3. C The dimension of linear momentum is L-1
  4. D The dimension of energy is L-2 '
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) The dimension of force is L-3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

M=Mass=M0L0T0
J=Angular momentum=ML2T-1
L=Length
[Now as angular momentum is dimensionless]
ML2T-1=M0L0T0
L2=T
Power P=MLT-2LT-1 as P=FV
=ML2T-3
=L2L-6
[P]=[L-4](A) is incorrect.
Energy/Work W=MLT-2L (using, Work=Force×displacement
=L2L-4
=L-2D is correct.
Force F=MLT-2=LL-4=L-3(B) is correct.
Linear momentum P=MLT-1=LL-2
p=L-1C is correct.
