Dimensional formula of Impulse – how to find?

Last updated on December 28th, 2021 at 02:12 pm

Here, we will find out the dimensional formula of Impulse.

The formula of Impulse = force x time

The dimensional formula of Force = [MLT^–2] [see here how to find the dimensional formula of force ]

The dimension of time = [T]

Hence, the Dimensional formula of Impulse
= The dimensional formula of force x The dimension of time
= [MLT^–2] [T]
= [MLT^–1]

Dimensional formula of Impulse = [MLT^–1]
