If speed V, area A and force F are chosen as fundamental units,

Question:

If speed $\mathrm{V}$, area $\mathrm{A}$ and force $\mathrm{F}$ are chosen as fundamental units, then the dimension of Young's modulus will be :

  1. $\mathrm{FA}^{2} \mathrm{~V}^{-1}$

  2. $\mathrm{FA}^{2} \mathrm{~V}^{-3}$

  3. $\mathrm{FA}^{2} \mathrm{~V}^{-2}$

  4. $\mathrm{FA}^{-1} \mathrm{~V}^{0}$


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

(4) Young's modulus, $Y=\frac{\text { stress }}{\text { strain }}$

$\Rightarrow Y=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{A}} / \frac{\Delta \ell}{\ell_{0}}=\mathrm{FA}^{-1} \mathrm{~V}^{0}$
