Dimensional formula of Work – how to find?

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

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

The formula of Work = force x displacement

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

The dimension of displacement = [L]

Hence, the Dimensional formula of Work
= The dimensional formula of force x The dimension of displacement
= [MLT^–2][L]
= [ML²T^–2]

Dimensional formula of Work = [ML²T^–2]
