Dimensional formula of Momentum – how to find?

Last updated on December 28th, 2021 at 02:11 pm

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

The formula of Momentum = mass x velocity

The dimension of mass = [M]

The dimensional formula of velocity = [M⁰LT^–1] [see here how to find the dimensional formula of velocity ]

Hence, the Dimensional formula of Momentum
= The dimension of mass x The dimensional formula of velocity
= [M] [M⁰LT^–1]
= [MLT^–1]

Dimensional formula of Momentum = [MLT^–1]
