The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given physical quantities have the same dimensions, we will analyze the dimensions of each quantity step by step. ### Step 1: Calculate the dimension of Momentum - **Momentum (p)** is defined as the product of mass (m) and velocity (v). - The dimension of mass (m) is \( [M] \). - The dimension of velocity (v) is \( [L][T^{-1}] \). Thus, the dimension of momentum is: \[ \text{Dimension of momentum} = [M][L][T^{-1}] = [MLT^{-1}] \] ### Step 2: Calculate the dimension of Impulse - **Impulse (J)** is defined as the product of force (F) and time (t). - The dimension of force (F) is \( [M][L][T^{-2}] \). - The dimension of time (t) is \( [T] \). Thus, the dimension of impulse is: \[ \text{Dimension of impulse} = [M][L][T^{-2}][T] = [MLT^{-1}] \] ### Step 3: Compare Momentum and Impulse From Steps 1 and 2, we see that: \[ \text{Dimension of momentum} = [MLT^{-1}] \] \[ \text{Dimension of impulse} = [MLT^{-1}] \] **Conclusion:** Momentum and impulse have the same dimensions. ### Step 4: Calculate the dimension of Pressure - **Pressure (P)** is defined as force (F) per unit area (A). Thus, the dimension of pressure is: \[ \text{Dimension of pressure} = \frac{[M][L][T^{-2}]}{[L^2]} = [ML^{-1}T^{-2}] \] ### Step 5: Calculate the dimension of Young's Modulus - **Young's Modulus (Y)** is defined as stress (force per unit area) divided by strain (change in length/original length). Thus, the dimension of Young's modulus is: \[ \text{Dimension of Young's Modulus} = \frac{[M][L][T^{-2}]}{[L^2]} = [ML^{-1}T^{-2}] \] ### Step 6: Compare Pressure and Young's Modulus From Steps 4 and 5, we see that: \[ \text{Dimension of pressure} = [ML^{-1}T^{-2}] \] \[ \text{Dimension of Young's Modulus} = [ML^{-1}T^{-2}] \] **Conclusion:** Pressure and Young's modulus have the same dimensions. ### Step 7: Calculate the dimension of Energy - **Energy (E)** is defined as work done, which is force (F) times distance (d). Thus, the dimension of energy is: \[ \text{Dimension of energy} = [M][L][T^{-2}][L] = [ML^2T^{-2}] \] ### Step 8: Calculate the dimension of Angular Momentum - **Angular Momentum (L)** is defined as the product of mass (m), velocity (v), and radius (r). Thus, the dimension of angular momentum is: \[ \text{Dimension of angular momentum} = [M][L][T^{-1}][L] = [ML^2T^{-1}] \] ### Step 9: Compare Energy and Angular Momentum From Steps 7 and 8, we see that: \[ \text{Dimension of energy} = [ML^2T^{-2}] \] \[ \text{Dimension of angular momentum} = [ML^2T^{-1}] \] **Conclusion:** Energy and angular momentum do not have the same dimensions. ### Step 10: Calculate the dimension of Force Constant - **Force Constant (k)** is defined as force (F) per unit displacement (x). Thus, the dimension of force constant is: \[ \text{Dimension of force constant} = \frac{[M][L][T^{-2}]}{[L]} = [MT^{-2}] \] ### Step 11: Calculate the dimension of Moment of Inertia - **Moment of Inertia (I)** is defined as mass (m) times the square of the distance (r). Thus, the dimension of moment of inertia is: \[ \text{Dimension of moment of inertia} = [M][L^2] = [ML^2] \] ### Step 12: Compare Force Constant and Moment of Inertia From Steps 10 and 11, we see that: \[ \text{Dimension of force constant} = [MT^{-2}] \] \[ \text{Dimension of moment of inertia} = [ML^2] \] **Conclusion:** Force constant and moment of inertia do not have the same dimensions. ### Final Conclusion The physical quantities that have the same dimensions are: 1. Momentum and Impulse 2. Pressure and Young's Modulus
