The dimension of torque is:...

The dimension of torque is:

A

`[MT^(-2)]`

B

`[ML^(-1)T^(-1)]`

C

`[ML^(3)T^(-2)]`

D

`[ML^(3)T^(-3)]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Torque, `tau`= force ` xx` distance .
Therefore dimension of torque= dimensions of force ` xx ` dimension of distance `=[MLT^(-2)][L]=[Ml^(4)T^(-2)]` .
