Question
Chapter 6, Problem 1MCQ
To determine
The correct unit for linear momentum.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1MCQ
Option (b).
Explanation of Solution
Write the expression for linear momentum
Here,
The SI unit of mass is kg and that of velocity is m/s.
Conclusion:
The SI unit of linear momentum is kg·m/s. Thus, option (b) is correct.
N/m is the unit of acceleration. Thus, option (a) is incorrect.
N/s doesn’t have the same dimension as kg·m/s. Thus, option (c) is incorrect.
All options aren’t correct. Thus, option (d) is incorrect.

Four capacitors are connected as shown in the figure below. (Let C = 12.0 µF.)
A circuit consists of four capacitors. It begins at point a before the wire splits in two directions. On the upper split, there is a capacitor C followed by a 3.00 µF capacitor. On the lower split, there is a 6.00 µF capacitor. The two splits reconnect and are followed by a 20.0 µF capacitor, which is then followed by point b.
(a) Find the equivalent capacitance between points a and b. µF(b) Calculate the charge on each capacitor, taking ΔVab = 16.0 V.
