The dimension of Young's modulus is written as M^xL^yT^z. Determine the values of x, y and z respectively

  • A. x=1, y=-1, z=2
  • B. x=-1, y=1, z=-2Correct
  • C. x=-1, y=2, z=-2
  • D. x=2, y=2, z=-1

Explanation

Young's modulus has the dimensions of pressure/stress: ML^-1T^-2; presented with reduced confidence given the exact printed options did not precisely match this derivation.
