The correct Answer is:
To find the dimension of "Pascal-Second," we need to break down the units involved. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Pascal**: - Pascal (Pa) is the unit of pressure, defined as one Newton per square meter (N/m²). - Therefore, we can express Pascal as: \[ \text{Pascal} = \frac{\text{Force}}{\text{Area}} = \frac{\text{N}}{\text{m}^2} \] 2. **Expressing Newton in terms of base units**: - Newton (N) is the unit of force, which can be expressed as: \[ \text{N} = \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s}^2 \] - Thus, we can rewrite Pascal as: \[ \text{Pascal} = \frac{\text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s}^2}{\text{m}^2} = \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{m} \cdot \text{s}^2} \] 3. **Combining Pascal with Seconds**: - Now we need to find the dimension of Pascal-Second (Pa·s): \[ \text{Pascal-Second} = \text{Pascal} \times \text{Second} = \left(\frac{\text{kg}}{\text{m} \cdot \text{s}^2}\right) \times \text{s} \] 4. **Simplifying the Expression**: - When we multiply Pascal by seconds, we have: \[ \text{Pascal-Second} = \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{m} \cdot \text{s}^2} \times \text{s} = \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{m} \cdot \text{s}} \] 5. **Final Result**: - Therefore, the dimension of Pascal-Second is: \[ [\text{Pascal-Second}] = \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{m} \cdot \text{s}} = \text{M} \cdot \text{L}^{-1} \cdot \text{T}^{-1} \] ### Final Answer: The dimension of "Pascal-Second" is \(\text{M} \cdot \text{L}^{-1} \cdot \text{T}^{-1}\). ---
