If force (F) Length (L) and time (T) have the basic units what would be the dimension of mass ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

From Newton.s second law of motion,
mass = `("force")/("acceleration")` Dimension of force = F (as given )
Dimension of acceleration = `LT^(-2)`
`:.` Dimension of mass = `(F)/(LT^(-2))=FL^(-1)T^(2).`
