The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given quantities have the same dimensions, we will analyze the dimensions of each quantity step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Angular Momentum Angular momentum (L) is given by the formula: \[ L = I \cdot \omega \] Where: - \( I \) is the moment of inertia, which has dimensions of: \[ [I] = [M][L^2] \] - \( \omega \) is the angular velocity, which has dimensions of: \[ [\omega] = [T^{-1}] \] Thus, the dimensions of angular momentum are: \[ [L] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \] ### Step 2: Analyze Linear Momentum Linear momentum (p) is given by the formula: \[ p = m \cdot v \] Where: - \( m \) is mass with dimensions: \[ [m] = [M] \] - \( v \) is velocity, which has dimensions of: \[ [v] = [L][T^{-1}] \] Thus, the dimensions of linear momentum are: \[ [p] = [M][L][T^{-1}] \] ### Step 3: Compare Angular Momentum and Linear Momentum From the above calculations: - Dimensions of angular momentum: \( [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \) - Dimensions of linear momentum: \( [M][L][T^{-1}] \) Since \( [L^2] \) and \( [L] \) are not the same, angular momentum and linear momentum do not have the same dimensions. ### Step 4: Analyze Work and Power Work (W) is given by: \[ W = F \cdot d \] Where: - \( F \) is force, which has dimensions of: \[ [F] = [M][L][T^{-2}] \] - \( d \) is displacement with dimensions: \[ [d] = [L] \] Thus, the dimensions of work are: \[ [W] = [M][L][T^{-2}][L] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] Power (P) is defined as: \[ P = \frac{W}{t} \] Where \( t \) has dimensions of: \[ [t] = [T] \] Thus, the dimensions of power are: \[ [P] = \frac{[M][L^2][T^{-2}]}{[T]} = [M][L^2][T^{-3}] \] ### Step 5: Compare Work and Power From the above calculations: - Dimensions of work: \( [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \) - Dimensions of power: \( [M][L^2][T^{-3}] \) Since the time dimensions are different, work and power do not have the same dimensions. ### Step 6: Analyze Torque Torque (τ) is defined as: \[ \tau = r \times F \] Where: - \( r \) is the distance with dimensions: \[ [r] = [L] \] - \( F \) is force, which we already established has dimensions of: \[ [F] = [M][L][T^{-2}] \] Thus, the dimensions of torque are: \[ [\tau] = [L][M][L][T^{-2}] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] ### Step 7: Compare Work and Torque From the above calculations: - Dimensions of work: \( [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \) - Dimensions of torque: \( [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \) Since both have the same dimensions, work and torque have the same dimensions. ### Conclusion The quantities that have the same dimensions are **Work and Torque**. ---
