` A dimensionally incorrect equation must be correct.

D

A dimensionally incorrect equation may be correct.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D

A dimensionally correct equation may or may not be correct. For example , ` s = ut + at^(2)` is dimensionally correct , but not correct actually.
A dimensionally incorrect equation may be correct also . For example , `s = u + ( a)/( 2) ( 2n -1)` is a correct equation , but not correct dimensionally.
