The correct Answer is:
To find the dimension of Young's modulus, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Young's Modulus Young's modulus (Y) is defined as the ratio of stress to strain. ### Step 2: Define Stress and Strain - **Stress** is defined as force per unit area. - **Strain** is defined as the change in length divided by the original length, which is a dimensionless quantity (unitless). ### Step 3: Write the Formula for Young's Modulus Thus, we can express Young's modulus as: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} = \frac{\text{Force}/\text{Area}}{\text{Strain}} \] Since strain is dimensionless, we can simplify this to: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{1} = \text{Stress} \] ### Step 4: Determine the Dimensions of Stress Stress can be expressed as: \[ \text{Stress} = \frac{\text{Force}}{\text{Area}} \] Now, we need to find the dimensions of force and area. ### Step 5: Dimensions of Force and Area - The dimension of force (F) is given by: \[ [F] = MLT^{-2} \] - The dimension of area (A) is given by: \[ [A] = L^2 \] ### Step 6: Substitute the Dimensions into the Stress Formula Now we can substitute the dimensions of force and area into the stress formula: \[ \text{Stress} = \frac{[F]}{[A]} = \frac{MLT^{-2}}{L^2} \] ### Step 7: Simplify the Expression When we simplify this, we get: \[ \text{Stress} = \frac{MLT^{-2}}{L^2} = ML^{-1}T^{-2} \] ### Step 8: Conclusion Since Young's modulus has the same dimensions as stress, we conclude: \[ [Y] = ML^{-1}T^{-2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the dimension of Young's modulus is: \[ [Y] = ML^{-1}T^{-2} \] ---
