Given below are two statements: Statement (I): Planck's constant and angular momentum have same dimensions. Statement (II): Linear momentum and moment of force have same dimensions. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Asked in JEE Main 27th Jan 1st Shift 2024 · Pairs with the same dimensions

Answer: (2) Statement I is true but Statement II is false

Step-by-step solution

Statement I: Planck's constant is [ML²T⁻¹] and angular momentum is mvr=[ML²T⁻¹]. Same, so true.

Statement II: linear momentum is [MLT⁻¹], while moment of force is torque, [ML²T⁻²].

These differ, so Statement II is false.

Why the other options are wrong
