The correct Answer is:
To determine which pair of physical quantities does not have the same dimensional formula, we will analyze each pair one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze the first pair - Acceleration and Gravitational Field Strength 1. **Acceleration (a)**: The dimensional formula for acceleration is derived from the formula \( a = \frac{v}{t} \), where \( v \) is velocity (length per time). - Dimensional formula: \[ [a] = [L T^{-2}] = [M^0 L^1 T^{-2}] \] 2. **Gravitational Field Strength (g)**: The gravitational field strength is defined as the force per unit mass. The force has the dimensional formula \( [F] = [M L T^{-2}] \) and mass has the dimensional formula \( [M] \). - Dimensional formula: \[ [g] = \frac{[F]}{[M]} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[M]} = [L T^{-2}] \] - Thus, the dimensional formula for gravitational field strength is also: \[ [g] = [M^0 L^1 T^{-2}] \] **Conclusion for the first pair**: Both acceleration and gravitational field strength have the same dimensional formula: \( [M^0 L^1 T^{-2}] \). ### Step 2: Analyze the second pair - Torque and Angular Momentum 1. **Torque (τ)**: Torque is defined as the product of force and the distance from the pivot point. Its dimensional formula can be derived from: \[ [\tau] = [F] \cdot [L] = [M L T^{-2}] \cdot [L] = [M L^2 T^{-2}] \] 2. **Angular Momentum (L)**: Angular momentum is defined as the product of moment of inertia and angular velocity. Its dimensional formula is: \[ [L] = [I] \cdot [ω] = [M L^2] \cdot [T^{-1}] = [M L^2 T^{-1}] \] **Conclusion for the second pair**: The dimensional formula for torque is \( [M^1 L^2 T^{-2}] \) and for angular momentum is \( [M^1 L^2 T^{-1}] \). Therefore, they do not have the same dimensional formula. ### Step 3: Analyze the third pair - Pressure and Modulus of Elasticity 1. **Pressure (P)**: Pressure is defined as force per unit area. Its dimensional formula is: \[ [P] = \frac{[F]}{[A]} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[L^2]} = [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \] 2. **Modulus of Elasticity (E)**: The modulus of elasticity is also defined as stress (force per unit area) divided by strain (dimensionless). Its dimensional formula is: \[ [E] = \frac{[P]}{[1]} = [M L^{-1} T^{-2}] \] **Conclusion for the third pair**: Both pressure and modulus of elasticity have the same dimensional formula: \( [M^1 L^{-1} T^{-2}] \). ### Final Conclusion: The pair of physical quantities that do not have the same dimensional formula is **Torque and Angular Momentum**.
