- Turpentine oil is flowing through a tube of length L and radius r. The pressure difference between the two ends of the tube is p. The viscosity of oil is given by
η = p(r2 - x2) 4vl
where v is the velocity of oil at a distance x from the axis of the tube. The dimensions of η are

h = p(r2 - x2) = [ML – 1T-2] [L2] = [ML – 1T – 1] 4vl [LT – 1] [L] Correct Option: D
h = p(r2 - x2) = [ML – 1T-2] [L2] = [ML – 1T – 1] 4vl [LT – 1] [L]
- The time dependence of a physical quantity p is given by p = p0 exp ( – α t2), where α is a constant and t is the time. The constant α

In p = p0 exp ( – αt2), αt2 dimensionless
∴ α - I - I - [T-2] t2 T2
Correct Option: B
In p = p0 exp ( – αt2), αt2 dimensionless
∴ α - I - I - [T-2] t2 T2

e = - L di .........(1) dt
e = iR.........(2)From (1) & (2) , iR = - L di dt
∴ Dimension of L.H.S. = Dimension of R.H.S. [A] R = L [AT – 1] ⇒ L = [T] R Correct Option: C
e = - L di .........(1) dt
e = iR.........(2)From (1) & (2) , iR = - L di dt
∴ Dimension of L.H.S. = Dimension of R.H.S. [A] R = L [AT – 1] ⇒ L = [T] R
