NEET 2024 Physics Dimensionless Quantities MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A force defined by F = αt² + βt acts on a particle at a given time t. The factor which is dimensionless, if α and β are constants, is:

A

αβt

B

αβ/t

C

βt/α

D

αt/β

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

To find a dimensionless quantity, the dimensions of the numerator and denominator must cancel out. Here, βt/α is dimensionless because the dimensions of βt (force) and α (force/time²) cancel out.
