Physics And Measurement Question 131

Question: A physcial quantity x depends on quantities y and z as follows: x=Ay+BtanCz , where A,B and C are constants. Which of the following do not have the same dimensions

[AMU (Engg.) 2001]

Options:

A) x and B

B) C and z1

C) y and B/A

D) x and A

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

x=Ay+BtanCz

From the dimensional homogenity

[x]=[Ay]=[B][xA]=[y]=[BA]

[Cz]=[M0L0T0]= Dimension less x and B ; C

and Z1;y

and BA

have the same dimension but x and A have the different dimensions.
