Physics Question on Units and measurement
The dimension of aP in the equation p=axb−t2 where p is pressure, x is distance and t is time are
A
[MLT−2]
B
[MT−2]
C
[ML3T−2]
D
[LT−3]
Answer
[MT−2]
Explanation
Solution
p=axb−t2 or pax=b−t2 [pax]=[b]=[T2] [a]=[p][x][T2] =[ML−1T−2][L][T2] [a]=[M−1T4] [ab]=[M−1T4][T2] =[MT−2]
