The dimensional formula for the modulus of rigidity is

A

ML2T2ML^{2}T^{- 2}

B

ML1T3ML^{- 1}T^{- 3}

C

ML2T2ML^{- 2}T^{- 2}

D

ML1T2ML^{- 1}T^{- 2}

Answer

ML1T2ML^{- 1}T^{- 2}

Explanation

Solution

Modulus of rigidity = Shear6mustressShear6mustrain=\frac{\text{Shear}\mspace{6mu}\text{stress}}{\text{Shear}\mspace{6mu}\text{strain}} = [ML1T2]\lbrack ML^{- 1}T^{- 2}\rbrack
