The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of identifying which pairs of quantities have the same dimensional formula, we will analyze each pair step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Kinetic Energy and Torque **Kinetic Energy (KE)** is given by the formula: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \] Where: - \( m \) is mass (dimension \( [M] \)) - \( v \) is velocity (dimension \( [L T^{-1}] \)) The dimensional formula for kinetic energy is: \[ [KE] = [M][L^2 T^{-2}] = [M L^2 T^{-2}] \] **Torque (τ)** is given by the formula: \[ τ = r \times F \] Where: - \( r \) is the distance (dimension \( [L] \)) - \( F \) is force (dimension \( [M L T^{-2}] \)) The dimensional formula for torque is: \[ [τ] = [L][M L T^{-2}] = [M L^2 T^{-2}] \] **Conclusion for Step 1:** Both kinetic energy and torque have the same dimensional formula: \[ [M L^2 T^{-2}] \] ### Step 2: Analyze Resistance and Inductance **Resistance (R)** is defined by Ohm's law: \[ R = \frac{V}{I} \] Where: - \( V \) is voltage (dimension \( [M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-1}] \)) - \( I \) is current (dimension \( [I] \)) The dimensional formula for resistance is: \[ [R] = \frac{[M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-1}]}{[I]} = [M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-2}] \] **Inductance (L)** is given by: \[ L = \frac{V}{\frac{dI}{dt}} \] Where: - \( \frac{dI}{dt} \) has the dimension of current change over time, which is \( [I T^{-1}] \) The dimensional formula for inductance is: \[ [L] = \frac{[M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-1}]}{[I T^{-1}]} = [M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}] \] **Conclusion for Step 2:** Resistance and inductance have different dimensional formulas: - Resistance: \( [M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-2}] \) - Inductance: \( [M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}] \) ### Step 3: Analyze Young's Modulus and Pressure **Young's Modulus (Y)** is defined as: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} \] Where: - Stress is defined as force per unit area: \( \text{Stress} = \frac{F}{A} \) - Strain is dimensionless. Thus, the dimensional formula for Young's Modulus is: \[ [Y] = \frac{[F][A^{-1}]}{1} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[L^2]} = [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \] **Pressure (P)** is defined as: \[ P = \frac{F}{A} \] Where: - Force is \( [M L T^{-2}] \) and area is \( [L^2] \). The dimensional formula for pressure is: \[ [P] = \frac{[F]}{[A]} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[L^2]} = [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \] **Conclusion for Step 3:** Both Young's Modulus and Pressure have the same dimensional formula: \[ [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \] ### Final Conclusion The pairs with the same dimensional formulas are: - (i) Kinetic Energy and Torque: Same dimensional formula \( [M L^2 T^{-2}] \) - (iii) Young's Modulus and Pressure: Same dimensional formula \( [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \) Thus, the correct options are (i) and (iii).
