Question

The dimensions of inter atomic force constant are

A
$$MLT^{-1}$$
B
$$MLT^{-2}$$
C
$$MT^{-2}$$
D
$$ML^{-1}T^{-1}$$
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is A. $$MT^{-2}$$
We know that inter atomic force is given as:
$$K=Y \times r_0=[ML^{-1}T^{-2}]\times [L]=[MT^{-2}]$$
Y = Young's modulus and $$r_0$$ = Interatomic distance
