Match List I with List II.
List-IList-II
(A) Torque(I) kg m⁻¹ s⁻²
(B) Energy density(II) kg m s⁻¹
(C) Pressure gradient(III) kg m⁻² s⁻²
(D) Impulse(IV) kg m² s⁻²

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Asked in JEE Main 30th Jan 2nd Shift 2023 · Matching quantities to their dimensions

Answer: (1) (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(II)

Step-by-step solution

A: torque is force times distance, kg m² s⁻², so (IV).

B: energy density is energy per unit volume, kg m⁻¹ s⁻², so (I).

C: a pressure gradient is pressure per unit length, kg m⁻² s⁻², so (III).

D: impulse equals momentum, kg m s⁻¹, so (II).

Hence A-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II. Note that torque and energy density differ, though both come from an energy.
