Match the LIST-I with LIST-II
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
A-I, B-IV, C-II, D-III
A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I
Correct answer:A
Standard Method
Given: Match the physical quantities in LIST-I with their dimensions in LIST-II.
Find: The correct matching.
Step 1: Identify dimensions of each physical quantity using defining equations.
For spring constant,
So,
Hence A \rightarrow II.
For thermal conductivity,
Hence B \rightarrow IV.
For Boltzmann constant,
Hence C \rightarrow I.
For inductive reactance,
Its dimensions are
Hence D \rightarrow III.
Step 2: Match with LIST-II.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
Match by dimensional formulas
Given: Four physical quantities and four dimensional formulas.
Find: Which option gives the correct correspondence.
Use dimensional analysis for each term instead of memorizing the list.
Therefore,
and
So A-II.
So B-IV.
So C-I.
it has dimensions of resistance:
So D-III.
Thus the full matching is A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
Using memorized dimensional formulas without deriving them can lead to mismatching similar-looking quantities. Instead, use defining relations such as and before matching.
Confusing the symbol for thermal conductivity with temperature unit kelvin is incorrect. Here denotes a physical quantity, while the dimension refers to temperature in the dimensional formula.
Treating inductive reactance as if it had dimensions different from resistance is wrong. Since reactance is measured in ohm, its dimensions must be the same as resistance: .
