Identify the pair(s) of physical quantities that possess identical dimensions.

Options

  1. AMagnetizing field intensity HH and intensity of magnetization II
  2. BMagnetic field BB and intensity of magnetization II
  3. CLongitudinal strain and magnetic susceptibility
  4. DMagnetic field BB and magnetizing field intensity HH

Correct answer

C. Longitudinal strain and magnetic susceptibility

Step-by-step solution

Magnetizing field intensity HH and intensity of magnetization II both have dimensions [L−1A][L^{-1} A].

Longitudinal strain is the ratio of change in length to original length, making it a dimensionless quantity [M0L0T0][M^{0} L^{0} T^{0}].

Magnetic susceptibility χ\chi is defined as the ratio of intensity of magnetization to magnetizing field intensity (χ=IH\chi = \dfrac{I}{H}). Since both II and HH have the same dimensions, χ\chi is also dimensionless [M0L0T0][M^{0} L^{0} T^{0}].

Magnetic field BB has dimensions [MT−2A−1][M T^{-2} A^{-1}], which differs from II and HH.

Therefore, the pairs of physical quantities that possess identical dimensions are magnetizing field intensity and intensity of magnetization, as well as longitudinal strain and magnetic susceptibility.
