    Which one of the following represents the correct dimensions of the coefficient of viscosity? [AIEEE 2004]

    A) \[[M{{L}^{-1}}{{T}^{-2}}]\]

    B) \[[ML{{T}^{-1}}]\]

    C) \[[M{{L}^{-1}}{{T}^{-1}}]\]

    D) \[[M{{L}^{-2}}{{T}^{-2}}]\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] By Newton's formula, \[\eta =\frac{F}{A(\Delta {{v}_{x}}/\Delta z)}\]
    \[\therefore \]Dimensions of\[\eta \]
    \[=\frac{Dimensions\text{ }of\text{ }force}{\left[ \begin{align}   & Dimensions\text{ }of\text{ }area\times Dimensions\text{ }of \\  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,velocity\text{ }gradient \\ \end{align} \right]}\]
    \[=\frac{[ML{{T}^{-2}}]}{[{{L}^{2}}][{{T}^{-1}}]}=[M{{L}^{-1}}{{T}^{-1}}]\]
