Hello

The dimensional formula of pressure is given by,

M 1 L -1 T -2

Where,

  • M = Mass
  • L = Length
  • T = Time

Pressure (P) = Force × Area -1 . . . . . (1)

Since, Force = Mass × Acceleration

And, acceleration = velocity × time -1 = [L T -1 ] [T] -1 = [L T -2 ]

∴ The dimensional formula of force = [M] × [L T -2 ] = Force = M 1 L 1 T -2 . . . . (2)

The dimensional formula of area = M 0 L 2 T 0 . . . . (3)

On substituting equation (2) and (3) in equation (1) we get,

Pressure (P) = Force × Area -1

Or, P = [M 1 L 1 T -2 ] × [L 2 ] -1 = M 1 L -1 T -2 .

Therefore, the pressure is dimensionally represented as M 1 L -1 T -2 .

hope it's help you

All the best
