The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of identifying which pair of quantities does not have identical dimensions, we will analyze each pair one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Impulse and Momentum - **Impulse (I)** is defined as the change in momentum. The formula for impulse can be expressed as: \[ I = \Delta p = m \Delta v \] where \(m\) is mass and \(\Delta v\) is change in velocity. - The dimensional formula for momentum (p) is: \[ p = mv \implies [p] = [M][L][T^{-1}] \] - Therefore, the dimensional formula for impulse is also: \[ [I] = [M][L][T^{-1}] \] - **Conclusion**: Impulse and momentum have the same dimensions. ### Step 2: Analyze Moment of Inertia and Moment of Force - **Moment of Inertia (I)** is given by: \[ I = m r^2 \] where \(m\) is mass and \(r\) is distance. - The dimensional formula for moment of inertia is: \[ [I] = [M][L^2] \] - **Moment of Force (Torque, τ)** is defined as: \[ τ = r \times F \] where \(F\) is force. - The dimensional formula for force is: \[ [F] = [M][L][T^{-2}] \] - Therefore, the dimensional formula for torque is: \[ [τ] = [L][M][L][T^{-2}] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] - **Conclusion**: The dimensional formula for moment of inertia is \([M][L^2]\) and for moment of force (torque) is \([M][L^2][T^{-2}]\). They are not the same. ### Step 3: Analyze Angular Momentum and Planck's Constant - **Angular Momentum (L)** is given by: \[ L = r \times p \] where \(p\) is momentum. - The dimensional formula for angular momentum is: \[ [L] = [L][M][L][T^{-1}] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \] - **Planck's Constant (h)** has dimensions: \[ [h] = [E][T] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}][T] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \] - **Conclusion**: Angular momentum and Planck's constant have the same dimensions. ### Step 4: Analyze Work and Torque - **Work (W)** is defined as: \[ W = F \cdot d \] - The dimensional formula for work is: \[ [W] = [M][L][T^{-2}][L] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] - **Torque (τ)** has already been calculated as: \[ [τ] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] - **Conclusion**: Work and torque have the same dimensions. ### Final Conclusion After analyzing all pairs, we find that the pair that does not have identical dimensions is: - **Moment of Inertia and Moment of Force (Torque)**. **Answer**: Moment of Inertia and Moment of Force. ---
