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

Options

  1. AThe dimension of power is L−5{L}^{- 5}
  2. BThe dimension of force is L−3{L}^{- 3}
  3. CThe dimension of linear momentum is L−1{L}^{- 1}
  4. DThe dimension of energy is L−2{L}^{- 2} '

Correct answer

B. The dimension of force is L−3{L}^{- 3}

Step-by-step solution

\left[M\right] = \left[Mass\right] = \left[{M}^{0}{L}^{0}{T}^{0}\right]
\left[J\right] = \left[Angularmomentum\right] = \left[M{L}^{2}{T}^{- 1}\right]
\left[L\right]=[Length]= \left[Length\right]
[Now as angular momentum is dimensionless]
\left[M{L}^{2}{T}^{- 1}\right]=[M0L0T0]= \left[{M}^{0}{L}^{0}{T}^{0}\right]
∴[L2]=[T]<br>∴ \left[{L}^{2}\right] = \left[T\right] <br >∴ Power \left[P\right]=[MLT−2⋅LT−1]= \left[ML{T}^{- 2} ⋅ L{T}^{- 1}\right]\left(asP = F ⋅ V\right)<br><br >= \left[M{L}^{2}{T}^{- 3}\right]
=[L2L−6]= \left[{L}^{2}{L}^{- 6}\right]
⇒[P]=[L−4]⇒(A)⇒ [ P ] = [ {L}^{- 4} ] ⇒ ( A ) is incorrect.
Energy/Work \left[W\right]=[MLT−2⋅L]= \left[ML{T}^{- 2} ⋅ L\right] (using, Work=Force×displacementWork = Force \times displacement
=[L2L−4]<br>= \left[{L}^{2}{L}^{- 4}\right] <br >= \left[{L}^{- 2}\right] ⇒ \left(D\right) is correct.
Force [F]\left[F\right] = \left[ML{T}^{- 2}\right]=[L⋅L−4]= \left[L ⋅ {L}^{- 4}\right] = \left[{L}^{- 3}\right]⇒(B)⇒ ( B ) is correct.
Linear momentum \left[P\right] = \left[ML{T}^{- 1}\right] = \left[L ⋅ {L}^{- 2}\right]
\left[p\right] = \left[{L}^{- 1}\right] ⇒ \left(C\right) is correct.
