Of the following quantities , which one has the dimensions different from the remaining three?

A

Energy density

B

Force per unit area

C

Product of charge per unit volume and voltage

D

Angular momentum per unit mass

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Energy density `= ("Energy")/("Volume") = [ML^(-1)T^(-2)]`
`"Force//Area" = ML^(-1)T^(-2) ["Charge // Volume"] xx ["Voltage"]`
`= (Q)/( vol.) xx (W)/(Q) = ("Work")/("Volume") = ML^(-1)T^(-2)`
The dimensions of `(d)` are different , i.e.,
`(ML^(2)T^(-1))/(M) = M^(0)L^(2)T^(-1)`
Hence , correct choice is `(d)`.
