According to Boyle's law, the product PV remains constant. The unit of PV is same as that of

  1. A energy
  2. B force
  3. C impulse
  4. D momentum
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) energy

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The units of PV can be calculated as follows:
The unit of pressure is \(\mathrm{Kgm}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-7}\)
The unit of volume is \(\mathrm{m}^3\)
\(\therefore \quad\) The unit of \(\mathrm{PV}\) is
Unit \(=\mathrm{Kgm}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-2} \mathrm{~m}^3=\mathrm{Kgm}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)
This is a unit of energy.
