Physical World Units And Measurements Ques 11
11. Dimensions of resistance in an electrical circuit, in terms of dimension of mass $[M]$, of length $[L]$, of time $[T]$ and of current $[I]$, would be
[2007]
(a) $[ML^{2} T^{-2}]$
(c) $[ML^{2} T^{-3} I^{-2}]$
(b) $[ML^{2} T^{-1} I^{-1}]$
(d) $[ML^{2} T^{-3} I-1]$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 11.(c)
Solution:
- (c) As we know that
$R=\frac{[V]}{[I]}=\frac{w}{q \cdot i}=\frac{w}{i \cdot t \cdot i}$
Dimension of Resistance
$=\frac{[ML^{2} T^{-3} I^{-1}]}{[T][I]}=[ML^{2} T^{-3} I^{-2}]$
