The dimensional formula of Planck's constant is same as that of MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The dimensional formula of Planck's constant is same as that of
A. Energy
B. Force
C. Angular momentum
D. Linear momentum
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Planck's constant h = E/ν. Dimensions: [ML²T⁻²]/[T⁻¹] = [ML²T⁻¹]. Angular momentum = mvr = [ML²T⁻¹]. Linear momentum [MLT⁻¹], force [MLT⁻²], energy [ML²T⁻²]. So angular momentum matches. This is a frequently asked SSC question.

Question #2 Report Error
The power of a lens is -2 D. This lens is:
A. Concave lens of focal length 200 cm
B. Convex lens of focal length 50 cm
C. Convex lens of focal length 200 cm
D. Concave lens of focal length 50 cm

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Power P = 1/f (in meters). P = -2 D ⇒ f = 1/(-2) = -0.5 m = -50 cm. Negative focal length indicates diverging (concave) lens. Convex lenses have positive power. Option A correctly states concave lens with |f| = 50 cm. Memory tip: 'Negative power = concave lens; f(in cm) = 100/P(in D)'. This direct application of lens power definition is common in competitive exams. Always convert diopters to focal length carefully, noting sign convention: negative for diverging lenses, positive for converging.
