MCQ
Which of the following physical quantities do not have same dimensions?
- Apressure and stress
- ✓tension and surface tension
- Cstrain and angle
- Denergy and work.
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
tension and surface tension
b
Tension is a force and surface tension is force per unit area hence their dimensions are not same.
