Find the dimensions of

Question:

Find the dimensions of

(a)angular speed,

(b) angular acceleration,

(c) Torque T

(d)moment of Inertia I

Solution:

(a) Angular speed $=$ radian/time $=\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{~L}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right]$

(b) Angular acceleration $=$ Angular speed/time $=\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{~L}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]$

(c) Torque $=\vec{r} \times \vec{F}=\left[\mathrm{ML}^{2} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]$

(d) Moment of Inertia $=\mathrm{Mr}^{2}=\left[\mathrm{ML}^{2}\right]$
