NEET Unit And Dimensions MCQs & PYQs

Question 61:

easy

The dimensions of universal gravitational constant are:

[2004]

From \(F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}\), we get \(G = \frac{Fr^2}{m_1 m_2}\). So, \([G] = \frac{(MLT^{-2})(L^2)}{M^2} = M^{-1}L^3T^{-2}\).

Question 62:

easy

Which of the following is a dimensional constant?

[1995]

A dimensional constant is a physical constant with dimensions. The Gravitational constant \(G\) is a dimensional constant with dimensions \(M^{-1}L^3T^{-2}\).

Question 63:

easy

The dimensions of \(RC\) is:

[1995]

The product \(RC\) represents the time constant of an \(RC\) circuit, and its dimension is time, \(T\).

Question 64:

easy

Which of the following has the dimensions of pressure?

[1994,90]

Pressure is defined as Force per unit Area. Its dimensions are \(MLT^{-2} / L^2 = ML^{-1}T^{-2}\).

Question 65:

moderate

The dimensional formula of permeability of free space \(\mu_0\) is

[1991]

From Ampere's law, the dimensions of permeability of free space \(\mu_0\) are derived as \(MLT^{-2}A^{-2}\).

Question 66:

moderate

According to Newton, the viscous force acting between liquid layers of area \(A\) and velocity gradient \( \Delta v / \Delta z \) is given by \(F = -\eta A (\Delta v / \Delta z)\), where \(\eta\) is constant called coefficient of viscosity. The dimensional formula of \(\eta\) is:

[1990]

From the formula \(F = -\eta A (\Delta v / \Delta z)\), the dimension of \(\eta\) is \(F / (A \cdot (\Delta v / \Delta z)) = [MLT^{-2}] / ([L^2] \cdot [T^{-1}]) = [ML^{-1}T^{-1}]\).

Question 67:

moderate

Which of the following quantities, which one has dimensions different from the remaining three?

[1989]

Energy per unit volume, force per unit area, and product of voltage and charge per unit volume all have dimensions \(ML^{-1}T^{-2}\). Angular momentum has dimensions \(ML^2T^{-1}\), which is different.

Question 68:

easy

Dimensional formula of self inductance is:

[1989]

The energy stored in an inductor is \(U = \frac{1}{2}LI^2\). Therefore, the dimensions of self-inductance \(L\) are \(U/I^2 = [ML^2T^{-2}]/[A^2] = [ML^2T^{-2}A^{-2}]\).

Question 69:

easy

The dimensional formula of torque is:

[1989]

Torque is calculated as Force \(\times\) perpendicular distance. So its dimensions are \([MLT^{-2}] \times [L] = [ML^2T^{-2}]\).

Question 70:

easy

If \(C\) and \(R\) denote capacitance and resistance, the dimensional formula of \(CR\) is:

[1988]

The product \(CR\) is the time constant of an RC circuit. Its dimension is time, \(T\), which can be written as \(M^0L^0T^1\).
