HC Verma Solutions – Concepts of Physics Part 1 – Chapter 1 Objective II HC Verma Solutions – Concepts of Physics Part 1 Chapter 1: Introduction to Physics – Objective II Q1. The dimensions ML⁻¹T⁻² may correspond to: (a) work done by a force (b) linear momentum (c) pressure (d) energy per unit volume Answer: (c), (d) Solution: Work done/energy = Force × distance = [MLT⁻²][L] = [ML²T⁻²] → does not match. Linear momentum = mass × velocity = [M][LT⁻¹] = [MLT⁻¹] → does not match. Pressure = Force / Area = [MLT⁻²] / [L²] = [ML⁻¹T⁻²] → correct. Energy per unit volume = [ML²T⁻²] / [L³] = [ML⁻¹T⁻²] → correct. Q2. Choose the correct statement(s): (a) A dimensionally correct equation may be correct. (b) A dimensionally correct equation may be incorrect. (c) A dimensionally incorrect equation may be correct. (d) A dimensionally incorrect equation may be incorrect. Answer: (a), (b...
