MCQ
Dimensional formula for thermal conductivity is (here $K$ denotes the temperature)
  • A
    $MLT ^{-3} K$
  • B
    $MLT ^{-2} K$
  • C
    $ML T ^{-2} K ^{-2}$
  • $MLT ^{-3} K ^{-1}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$MLT ^{-3} K ^{-1}$
d
$\because \frac{ d Q}{ dt }= k A \frac{ d T }{ d x }$

$k =\frac{\left(\frac{ d Q}{ dt }\right)}{ A \left(\frac{ d T }{ d x }\right)}$

$[ k ]=\frac{\left[ ML ^{2} T ^{-3}\right]}{\left[ L ^{2}\right]\left[ KL ^{-1}\right]}=\left[ MLT ^{-3} K ^{-1}\right]$
